National carrier SriLankan Airlines will be reducing its flights to China from tomorrow (Thursday) due to less passengers flying out, the airline said in a statement issued on Wednesday.
The airline will be reducing its flights to Beijing from four to two; Shanghai from four to two; and Canton from seven to three.
The statement noted the carrier "is rationalizing its services to China in accordance with current market conditions as per its long-held commercial policies with a temporary reduction of frequencies to several cities. This is to better reflect passenger demand in the wake of a significant reduction in the number of Chinese travellers venturing overseas following the outbreak of the Novel Coronavirus epidemic."
