There's so many jobs depending on air travel in non-direct way. Travel & leisure industry is obvious - but remember: these are restaurants, car rentals, diving schools, street food vendors, even groceries and pharamcies all around the glob. There are countries which depend mostly on tourism It's also very likely that some many national parks around the glob would be deserted and with most of it's animals killed to decorate houses and feed "traditional Chinsese medicine". I doubt that rhinos of Nepal, gorillas of Virunga and such would survive without rich visitors.

So there will be a lot of effort put to bring tourist back to Barcelona, Venice, Phuket and so on.

Have faith, brothers and sisters.

Hope it's true... COVID hitting hard in Spain... mind-blowing. I was hoping to start training in April and I have postponed till October. Hopefully in two years it washes away and we can continue the tendency of growth, but it all depends on how harsh the economical situation is after COVID is no longer a major issue... peoples pockets are going to be empty.
