Aviation in Asia is slowly recovering from COVID.   The number of domestic flights in many (actually most) of the Asian countries has returned to 2019 pre-Covid levels, but the number of international flights have not recovered.  

Asia has gone from one of the fastest growing aviation stories to one of the slowest to emerge.  It was only around April of 2022 that the momentum began to turn positive.  Most experts believe that Asian aviation can thrive again in the future, however, as long as the borders of China remain closed, progress will be extremely difficult if not impossible.

The Aviation market in India is recovering and it less dependent on China than the other countries. 

The travel industry believes that travel in Asia will increase during in the future (2023) due to pent up demand.  Australia, Japan, Korea, Singapore and New Zealand will be key destinations in the future.  Delta and United plan to add additional seats to Asia during this year
