Mumbai:
India's domestic passenger traffic slipped to a 10-year low at an estimated 53.4 million in the just-concluded financial year, a report said.
However, in the previous fiscal there were no passenger flight operations for almost two months due to the pandemic-induced lockdown.
During the financial year 2010-11, all domestic air operators together had flown a total of 53.8 million passengers on local routes, according to ratings agency ICRA.
The domestic passenger traffic in March 2021 has been estimated at around 77-78 lakh, a marginal decline of about 1 percent over February during which airlines had flown around 78.30 lakh passengers, it said.
