Reliable air travel is essential to the global economy. In turn, air travel is directly dependent on socio-economic dynamics. The closure of state borders and the almost complete cessation of flights around the world during the pandemic of the new coronavirus infection have led to unprecedented losses for airlines. The drop in revenues is due to both a decrease in the number of flights and an increase in expenses for ground handling of aircraft for a long period, preparation of the aircraft fleet and personnel for the restoration of flights. The paper considers new approaches to organizing air travel that contribute to the gradual recovery of the industry, for example, the partial abandonment of the use of wide-body airliners and the introduction of digital passenger documents.
