Transatlantic market may be closed until late November but the Thanksgiving season may offer a glimmer of hope [OAG].

Thanksgiving may offer a glimmer of hope for transatlantic travel according to Aviation data specialists, OAG. "Since the first week of August, airlines around the world have cut back their planned capacity by some 100 million seats. Assume in normal times 80% of those would have been filled at an average yield of US$200, that's US$20 billion of revenues airlines had "hoped" to see that isn't going to happen. These numbers are before the EU recommendation to limit US traveller access, partly because of the Delta variant raging in the US, but perhaps more out of frustration at the lack of reciprocity from the US authorities. Chances are, the transatlantic market will now be closed until late November, when the Thanksgiving season may offer a glimmer of hope."
