When the pandemic forced officer-goers to work remotely, much of the corporate travel ground to a halt. Those who served the travel segment were worried that exposure to virtual video-conferencing and event platforms may mean a death knell for business travel. But two years later, there has been a "360-degree change", according to a leading airline in the country.
IndiGo, which controls 56% of the aviation market, saw 100% recover in corporate or business travel in April and May and expects the demand for it to soon exceed pre-pandemic levels, according to its Chief Strategy and Revenue Officer, Sanjay Kumar.
