Aviation in for long-haul recovery as Omicron causes at least
600,000 Heathrow passengers to cancel travel plans in December
-- COVID-19 continues to pose significant challenges for the
travel industry, with Heathrow welcoming only 19.4 million
passengers in 2021 - less than one quarter of 2019 and below even
2020 levels
-- At least 600,000 passengers cancelled travel plans from
Heathrow in December due to Omicron and the uncertainty caused by
swiftly imposed government travel restrictions
-- There is significant doubt over the speed at which demand
will recover. IATA forecasts suggest passenger numbers will not
reach pre-pandemic levels until 2025, provided travel restrictions
are removed at both ends of a route and passengers have confidence
they will not return rapidly
-- We are urging the UK government to remove all testing now for
fully vaccinated passengers and to adopt a playbook for any future
Variants of Concern that is more predictable, limits additional
measures only to passengers from high-risk destinations and allows
quarantine at home instead of in a hotel
-- This creates enormous uncertainty for the CAA in setting a
new five-year regulatory settlement. We believe that the focus
should be on improving passenger service, aligning incentives for
airlines and airports to work together to rebuild passenger demand
and maintaining affordable private financing in uncertain times.
This is a chance to safeguard a world-leading hub airport for
Britain and avoid a return to the " Heathrow hassle" days of the
early 2000s, undermining the UK's global trading ambitions
Heathrow CEO John Holland-Kaye said:
"There are currently travel restrictions, such as testing, on
all Heathrow routes - the aviation industry will only fully recover
when these are all lifted and there is no risk that they will be
reimposed at short notice, a situation which is likely to be years
away. While this creates enormous uncertainty for the CAA in
setting a new 5-year regulatory settlement, it means the regulator
must focus on an outcome that improves service, incentivises growth
and maintains affordable private financing."
