The monthly domestic air passenger traffic touched 1.29 crore to cross the pre-COVID level in December 2022, with Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia terming it as a healthy trend and a good sign for the industry.
In December 2019, the domestic air passenger traffic stood at 1.26 crore.
"2022 sets new record in air passenger movement," according to a graphic shared by the minister on his Twitter handle on Tuesday.
The traffic reached 1.29 crore in December last year.
There is a healthy trend in domestic passenger movement of late - a good sign for the aviation sector, the minister said in a tweet.
"Monthly domestic passenger numbers in December 2022 crossed the pre-Covid-29 high!" Scindia said.
