The aviation industry might not reach pre-crisis levels until 2025, Airbus' CEO said on Tuesday.

Airlines are on course to lose a total $157 billion this year and next, their main global body warned earlier on Tuesday, further downgrading its industry outlook in response to the second wave of coronavirus infections and shutdowns afflicting major markets.
