LONDON, Jan 5 (Reuters) - British Airways said on Tuesday it
was reviewing its flight schedule following the announcement of
new national lockdowns across the UK.
Restrictions on travel due to the pandemic meant that
UK-based airlines were already operating at low levels, but the
new lockdown in England stops most people from travelling
abroad, meaning further cuts to airline schedules are likely.
"Our focus is on keeping crucial air links open
- transporting vital goods and ensuring people who are
permitted to travel can continue to do so safely," British
Airways, which is owned by IAG, said in a statement.
