SINGAPORE Airlines (SIA) is evaluating the impact of the US' Europe travel ban on its operations even as it announced further flight cuts on Thursday owing to tepid travel demand following the Covid-19 virus outbreak.
The latest wave of capacity reduction - which will temporarily remove 15.6 per cent of capacity from its network - affects flights to destinations such as Rome and China. Most of the capacity cuts last until May, although a handful of flights, such as to Christchurch and San Francisco, are affected in June as well.
