THE Brussels lockdown has prompted scores of travel cancellations to the Belgian capital following the shocking terror attacks in Paris.

Data from travel data analyst ForwardKeys shows that net bookings - which looks at both daily bookings and cancellations - plummeted 159 per cent since the lockdown was implemented at the start of the weekend. In the week before, immediately after the Paris attacks, bookings fell 23 per cent.
