The number of business aircraft flights in August was lower than predicted, but still far ahead of pre-COVID numbers. The decline was due to a number of factors, including the expiration of the Payroll Protection Program, which led to a decrease in demand for private jets. Other factors include the continued rise in COVID cases and the upcoming presidential election. Despite the decline, the number of business aircraft flights is still far above pre-COVID levels, and the industry is optimistic that demand will continue to grow in the coming months.
