The Texas-headquartered Southwest Airlines has said that gradual improvements in air travel during the last three months have stalled in recent weeks.

On Thursday, the Dallas-based airline said in an update to investors that “while the company expected the election to impact trends, it is unclear whether the softness in booking trends is also a direct result of the recent rise in Covid-19 cases”, reports Xinhua news agency/

The update also said that the company has reduced its daily cash burn to $10 million a day after passenger willingness to buy tickets again between August and October and that it still has about $13.6 billion in the bank.

According to the company, its revenue will be down 60 per cent to 65 per cent in November and December compared to a year ago, while its capacity will be down about 40 per cent.
