Forward guidance
COVID-19 case counts are now rising steeply in many parts of the world with corresponding increases in lock-downs and re-imposed travel restrictions that will continue to impact travel in the near-term. Nevertheless, we remain confident in a long-term recovery and will continue to invest in our company to ensure that when the pandemic recedes and travel demand returns fully, we are prepared to take advantage of it.
