The International Air Transport Association estimated that global airlines losses amount to $200 billion as a result of the outbreak of the Covid-19 virus and the measures and restrictions taken in travel and the demand for it. Because of the restrictions imposed on travel, the reduction in the number of passengers by the airline, and the reluctance of citizens to travel, in addition to the high number of injuries and deaths, which led to a decrease in the percentage of revenues and its continuation of paying the wages of its employees. The research aims to study the effects of Covid-19 on the Iraqi Airways company by studying the movement of passengers on board the company and clarifying the role of procedures on air transport revenues for Iraqi Airways. The study concluded that the Covid-19 virus has a significant and devastating impact on air operations in a company.
