Covid-19 crisis lasting since the very beginning of the year, made a significant impact on the aviation sector, that according to the aviation experts will cause a financial damage of approximately 110 billion Euros for all aviation stakeholders, i.e. the air navigation providers, airlines and the airports. These effects have not spared M-NAV either, thus resulting in significant drop in traffic of 92,2 % during the month of May, in comparison to the same month of the previous year (2019). The reduction in M-NAV’s income for the first 6 months is just above 4 million Euros. On European level, during the forthcoming months, taking into consideration all restrictions and limitation applied by the States health authorities, certain steps for graduate return to normal operations, were taken and the air traffic starts to increase. In April, EUROCONTROL presented two draft scenarios for graduate return to normal operations. The latest analysis depicts that the actual traffic is in line with the recommended coordinated scenario.
