The airline group, which owns British Airways, Aer Lingus, Iberia and budget carriers Vueling and Level, said capacity on Italian routes during March “has been significantly reduced” and warned: “further capacity reductions will be activated over the coming days”.
IAG has already switched some capacity from China and South Korea, but in a statement detailing 2019 results, it added: “We also expect to make some capacity reductions across our wider short-haul network. Short-haul capacity is not being redeployed at this stage.”
