The Prague-based airline company Smartwings Group, of which Czech Airlines (CSA) also belongs, carried only 2020 million passengers in 1,8 - 81,5 percent fewer than the year before. 

The proceeds have fallen by 90 percent, reports the Courier. The reason is obvious. The corona crisis has colored almost all of the figures from last year in dark red. As a result, the company also had to cut back on its workforce. Around 600 employees - a quarter of all employees - had to vacate their jobs. The Smartwings Group includes a total of five airlines: Smartwings, Czech Airlines, Smartwings Slovakia, Smartwings Poland and Smartwings Hungary. Most of the passengers - more than 1,3 million - were carried under the Smartwings and Czech Airlines brands in 2020.
