Impact of coronavirus pandemic

The operating results for 11M of 2020 were affected by the dynamics of demand and significant flight restrictions imposed amid the spread of the novel coronavirus infection.

In November 2020 international flights remained significantly limited, with airlines operating in a seasonal decline in demand.
