It may be stating the obvious, but global travel is in decline due to both falling demand, and travel restrictions imposed by countries on Chinese travellers. Additionally many countries have imposed restrictions for travelers from China and with many foreign governments advising against non-essential travel to China as the outbreak persists.
Below a full list of the airlines that have announced travel restrictions to China, and a list of countries that have imposed travel bans or mandatory quarantines for travelers from China.
