The spread of the new coronavirus that causes COVID-19 has lessened people's desire to travel, causing airlines to suspend or reduce flights and offer waivers for customers to change their plans.
On Wednesday, Delta announced a reduction in weekly flights to Japan, where there have been 268 cases, according to WHO, because of a drop in demand. On January 21, Washington became the first state to report a case of the new coronavirus, and its case count has grown to 27, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Five weeks after the first case was identified, CDC officials reported the first death, involving a man in his 50s. Since Saturday, eight other people have died in Washington—mostly involving people who are elderly or have underlying conditions—bringing the total death toll in the U.S.
