LONDON, March 17 (Reuters) - British foreign minister
Dominic Raab said on Tuesday the government was working with
airlines to come up with the ways to support an industry badly
hurt by travel restrictions put in place to combat a growing
outbreak of coronavirus.
Asked about whether the government was considering a subsidy
for airlines, Raab told parliament: "We will work with the
airlines to find and see what support we can provide."
"Our priority continues to be to make sure commercial
flights can access as many areas as possible to get people back
in the kind of scale and volume that is necessary to address the
challenge we face," he said referring to those Britons who were
abroad but wanted to return home.
