BA and Ryanair have cancelled flights and BA revised refund policies for new bookings (but not existing ones - presumably they would like to keep the cash in the business). Hopefully flyBe will be less effected as a predominantly domestic airline, but they are presumably much less resilient to any reduction in cashflow than the likes of IAG, Ryanair and easyJet groupings.
