Almost 20 years ago, 9/11 caused a global shift in airport operations worldwide. Will the Covid-19 pandemic do the same? In the next issue of AIR, we examine whether creating more streamlined airports to welcome passengers back could create new security issues. Can airports effectively balance the two?
We also debate the pros and cons of mandatory vaccinations for flights and take a look at the knock-on effect of Covid-19 on drug smuggles relying on aviation. Also: will the pandemic clear the field for a suite of airline start-ups in 2021?
