Airlines are still banking on a pickup in business travel this fall despite the Delta variant and return-to-office delays at major companies

such as New York and Boston, while cutting back on flying many of the vacation routes that became popular over the summer.

“We’re pivoting our capacity to now supplying more business seats,” said Joe Esposito, Delta’s senior vice president of network planning. Delta has been polling corporate customers to ensure it gets the timing right. “We don’t want to put the seats in before they fly,” Mr. Esposito said. “We want to put the seats in when they’re ready to get back in the air.”

Vacation travel typically slows when summer ends, while business travelers start to hit the road again. How that shift plays out this year is a major test for airlines that rely heavily on lucrative corporate customers.
