Why yawn?
Generally the situation is currently getting worse, not better.  Even without a ban (which I would imagine is now even more imminent with the count up to 39 with 1 organic non-traceable infection), enough "lack of public interest in flying" could end up making the airlines "self-quarantine" flights.

After the praise they received for the waiver, I believe that this deserves its own post, and not a roundup

Agreed even without the previous praise. Many other bloggers reported it the way it is not sure why it’s being downplayed here.

I think they're misreading it. It's more of guidance to get people to look at alternate flights than a rule IMHO. It says agents can make their own decisions still.
If they change your flight let us know.

Not sure if it was published before.
LY to postpone the opening of new routes to Chicago until June 28, to Dusseldorf until July 3 and to Tokyo until August 29.

Elal writes that cancellations are subject to flight ticket terms and conditions.

I assume that since flights will be terminated or reduced to 1 per day, any cancellation fees or restrictions will be waived.
