LONDON, March 9 (Reuters) - British low-cost airline easyJet
said it expects to reduce its flights to northern Italy
over the next three and a half weeks, after Italian authorities
ordered a virtual lockdown of the area.
The restrictions on travel in the affected areas in northern
Italy are part of a government plan to try to contain the rapid
spread of coronavirus there.
EasyJet said it would review its flying programme to the
airports in the area, Milan Malpensa, Milan Linate, Venice and
Verona until 3 April, with cancellations expected.
"We will provide a further update on our schedule in due
course," easyJet said in an emailed statement on Monday.
