Delta Air Lines has decided to discontinue almost all scheduled services to
the European mainland from Monday. This is because of the corona virus and the
US entry ban. From Schiphol, the airline continues to fly only to Atlanta and
Detroit. Brussels flights are stooped fully.
 
The affected passengers are rebooked as much as possible to flights operated
by joint venture partners Air France-KLM and Virgin Atlantic. KLM will
maintain the following American destinations in the next two weeks: Atlanta,
Washington, New York JFK, Los Angeles, Chicago and San Francisco.
 
Delta has to make significant cutbacks due to the corona virus. The total
capacity is reduced by about 40 percent, with the result that hundreds of
aircraft remain on the ground. In a letter to staff, CEO Ed Bastian said the
situation was even more radical than after the attacks on September 11, 2001.
