India: expectations for business travel 2021

As of September 2020, 90 percent of respondents to a survey by EY and ICF International stated that their companies expect business travel to be possible in 2021. Ten percent of respondents do not expect that their companies would send employees on travel business trips due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The respondents were chosen from industries that involve frequent domestic business travel, such as auditing, consulting, or industrial manufacturing.

Before the pandemic broke out, the business travel segment was estimated to make up a volume of 15 to 20 percent of the domestic Indian aviation sector.
