"Leisure demand is really, really strong. Premium leisure demand is much higher. Business demand hasn't fully recovered yet ... that's taking more time," he said. Kirby, however, said that airlines will not be able to operate the way they did pre-pandemic. Supply chains are getting better but the bar is getting raised as every airline around the world tries to grow, he added.The chief of the world's biggest airline also raised concerns over competing carriers flying over Russia.
