IATA: Jan-2020 growth slowdown 'just the tip of the iceberg' for coronavirus
IATA director general and CEO Alexandre de Juniac said (05-Mar-2020) Jan-2020 was "just the tip of the iceberg in terms of the traffic impacts we are seeing owing to the coronavirus outbreak", as major travel restrictions in China did not begin until 23-Jan-2020. Nevertheless, it was "still enough to cause our slowest traffic growth in nearly a decade," said Mr de Juniac. [more - original PR]
