However, in June they expect that number to get close to what was seen in June 2019 as more people are vaccinated and comfortable traveling again. The volumes arenât where they were in 2019, but we are picking up, CVG spokesperson Mindy Kershner said. Weâre really looking at June right now. Weâre expecting to be 70-80% of what we saw in 2019 and that might continue to increase as we add new service.â
