Only companies such as cargo operators and air ambulance services are maintaining high level of operations, providing their services where they are needed the most. Taking into account the flight data collected in Leon over the last 15 months, we can clearly see a substantial decline in the number of daily flights dispatched via Leon in recent weeks. Comparing the data year-to-year, at the end of February 2020 Leon boasted a significant **16% increase** in daily flights due to the expanding client-base (990 flights in 2020, in comparison to 850 flights in 2019). However, due to aforementioned restrictions and bans, the flight data for the first week of April 2020 currently stand at roughly **330 daily flights**. While comparing it with the data of the same period of 2019 (constituting of **920 daily flights**), this translates into a very noticable drop of roughly **64 percent of traffic reduction**.

Over the last few weeks we have been advising our client-base to keep only the currently operating part of their fleet active in Leon, thus significantly reducing monthly costs. Comparing the first week of March 2020 with the first week of April 2020, the number of **active aircraft in Leon has decreased by roughly 20%** (most of which is a fleet used by scheduled operators). Such flexibility is absolutely necessary for an efficient resource management of every aviation business during present-day events, while it also allows us to maintain the development process of Leon as swift and sound as always. ### The sun will shine again In moments such as those it is still particularly important to keep perspective far wider than the current scope of things only.
