SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): National carrier Singapore Airlines and SilkAir have cancelled a number flights to and from several cities in India until April 26 following the South Asian country's suspension of visitor visas.
This adds to a slew of flight cancellations by both airlines which have already axed thousands of flights as a result of the coronavirus outbreak.
In total, SIA Group, which also comprises budget airline Scoot, has cut its capacity by 18.7 per cent compared with what it had originally scheduled from February to the end of May. Other international airlines such as China Eastern Airlines, Cathay Pacific and Thai Airways have also cancelled flights to India.
