While you - or rather IATA's modelling - may well be in the right ballpark, the actual figure is demonstrably unprovable, unless you are suggesting that every one of those 1.1 billion people was tested a week or so after flying, which sounds a tad unlikely.

What IATA actually said was "there is no way to establish an exact tally of possible flight-associated cases".
