airport revenues in 2020 compared to business as usual (by ACI)
• Airlines: A 54.7% decline of revenue passenger kilometres (RPKs, both international and
domestic) in 2020 compared to 2019 (by IATA)
• Tourism: A decline in international tourism receipts of between USD 910 to 1,170 billion in 2020,
compared to the USD 1.5 trillion generated in 2019, with 100% of worldwide destinations having
travel restrictions (by UNWTO)
• Trade: A fall of global merchandise trade volume by between 13% and 32% in 2020 compared
to 2019 (by WTO)
• Global economy: A projected -4.9% to -5.2% contraction in world GDP in 2020, far worse than
during the 2008–09 financial crisis (by IMF and World Bank)

Scenario Building
Previous two (2) scenarios and six (6) different paths were restructured with new two (2) scenarios and
four (4) different paths for scheduled passenger traffic till December 2020.

Indicative Scenarios and Paths Forward
As overall severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic are still uncertain, four (4)
different recovery paths under two (2) indicative scenarios are developed:
28
What does Scenario mean?
• Scenarios are not forecasts of what is most likely to happen. Given rapidly changing
circumstances, they are merely indicative of possible paths or consequential
outcomes out of many
• The exact path (depth, length and shape) will depend upon various factors, inter alia,
duration and magnitude of the outbreak and containment measures, availability of
government assistance, consumer confidence, and economic conditions
• With the situation evolving and more information available, scenarios will be adjusted
as necessary
29
Key assumptions
30
Baseline & Reference
• Reference: V-shaped
– Information-only scenario that reflects airlines’ most recent expectation or a “signal” of airlines’
plan to the market (not necessarily realistic)
– Supply: based on latest update of airline schedules filed up to December, which are adjusted
weekly by airlines according to the expectation of the evolving situation (quite often managing
capacity for a short period due to the uncertainties)
– Demand: quickly returning to Baseline level
31
Scenarios 1 & 2
In the following analysis, international and domestic scenarios having the same path number are
linked with each other, although different combination of scenarios/paths would be possible
32
Scenario Estimates
Figures and estimates herein reflect the latest operational data and schedules filed by airlines
but are subject to substantial changes, and will be updated with the situation evolving
and more information available.
33
Three (3) key impact indictors
• Three (3) key impact indicators under four (4) paths of two (2) scenarios:
– Impact on passenger seat capacity (supply, % change)
– Impact on passenger numbers (demand)
– Impact on gross passenger operating revenues of airlines
• Comparison to:
– Baseline scenario
Estimation based on actual results of January to
– 2019 level (year-on-year) June 2020 are used for the key impact indicators.
– Reference scenario Appendix C details the key impact indicators while
Appendix D presents estimation based on actual
• Break-down by: results by route group.
– International and domestic
– Six (6) geographical regions
34
Impact on Passenger Seat Capacity (Supply)
• Prior to the outbreak, airlines had planned to increase seat capacity in 2020 by 2.8%
(international by 2.5% and domestic by 3.0%), compared to 2019.
• According to the latest estimates, passenger seat capacity could instead drop from the above
Baseline by 43% to 51% (international by 55% to 65% and domestic by 35% to 41%).
• This capacity level would be 42% to 49% (international 54% to 64% and domestic 33% to 39%)
below the 2019 level.
• Biggest capacity reduction (%) is expected to be in Middle East, followed by Africa and Europe.

Impact on Passenger Numbers (Demand)
• Given the originally-planned seat capacity, passenger demand could have increased 151
million for 2020 (international 56 million and domestic 95 million), compared to 2019.
• According to the latest estimates, passenger demand could instead drop from the above
Baseline by 2,423 to 2,907 million (international by 1,214 to 1,422 million and domestic by
1,209 to 1,485 million).
• This demand level would be 2,272 to 2,756 million (international by 1,158 to 1,366 million
and domestic by 1,114 to 1,391 million) below the 2019 level.
• The most substantial demand reduction (in total number) is expected to be in Asia/Pacific,
followed by Europe, hitting its summer travel peak season.

Impact on Gross Passenger Operating Revenues of Airlines
• With the originally-planned seat capacity and trend line growth of demand, airlines’ gross
passenger operating revenues could have increased USD 18 billion for 2020 (USD 9 billion
from international and USD 9 billon from domestic), compared to 2019.
• According to the latest estimates, airlines’ revenues could instead plummet USD 323 to 385
billion (international USD 216 to 253 billion and domestic USD 106 to 132 billion) below the
Baseline, or USD 305 to 368 billion (international USD 207 to 245 billion and domestic USD
98 to 123 billion) below the 2019 level.
• Approximately 60% of revenue loss would be recorded by Asia/Pacific and Europe.

Data used for scenario analysis
• Seat capacity (seats available for sale): OAG airlines schedule data; Route Online; airline
websites and ICAO ADS-B operational data
• Load factor (RPKs/ASKs): ICAO long-term traffic forecasts (LTF); ICAO statistical reporting
forms; IATA economics data; and airline news release
• Historical passenger traffic (including ASKs, RPKs, passenger numbers and operating
revenues): ICO Annual Report of the Council; and ICAO statistical reporting forms
• Yield (passenger revenues/RPK): ICAO revenue-cost analysis of airlines (RCA); and ICAO-ICM
Marketing Information Data Transfer (MIDT passenger origin-destination)
• Macroeconomic factors (GDP impact): Income elasticity of demand estimated for ICAO LTF;
and IMF and World Bank economic outlook data
