The airline giant, which also owns Iberia, Aer Lingus and Vueling, said it was currently only planning to fly 45% of the capacity from July to September that it operated in the same quarter in 2019. But these plans “remain uncertain and subject to ongoing review”.
Luis Gallego, IAG’s chief executive, said: “In the short term, our focus is on ensuring our operational readiness, so we have the flexibility to capitalise on an environment where there’s evidence of widespread pent-up demand when travel restrictions are lifted.
