Air Transport Industry Hit Hardest By COVID-19
The air transport industry (air and space transport) in New Zealand employed 5,600 (35.0 percent) fewer people in February 2021 compared with February 2020, when the COVID-19-related travel restrictions weren’t yet in place, Stats NZ said today.
This was the biggest percentage drop in employment for any industry (at subdivision level) in the year to February 2021.
