Conference travel, trade shows, sporting events travel is down as is Asia travel. No surprise so far and the real pandemia panic lies still ahead in Europe and the US. The secret is to shrink early not burn your budget while waiting for things to improve.

“Apologies for inconvenience”. Another meaningless phrase used by many service providers.
Hard headed sense when demand is reduced effected by waste conscious management such as that displayed by SQ.

Lufthansa : all new hires planned for the airline will be reassessed, suspended or deferred to a later date. For the time being, the participants of courses that are already in progress will not be hired.

Not only Lufthansa . Italian government announced today restrictions on movement population so that will hit the local airlines badly too.
The French Government has announced a plan ( so called level 3 ) in case massive expansion of virus that will virtually close any gathering of people including public transport.
We are not there yet , but people are not booking flights at the moment . Difficult weeks/months ahead for everyone in our business..

In order to stop the virus spreading further, the Italian government's special scientific committee on Coronavirus publish on Wednesday a set of recommendations it hopes everyone in the country will follow.
The official advice states that people should avoid crowded places and keep “at least one metre” away from anyone else at all times.
The official advise is for all over '75s to stay at home and “avoid social contact”. Anyone over the age of 65 with health problems and people with respiratory conditions have also been advised to stay at home.
It is recommended that all football matches and other sporting events in Italy be played behind closed doors. This would include Serie A games, many of which have already been postponed due to the health ministry's recommendations.
The warnings are in place for the whole of Italy for the next 30 days, though they will be re-evaluated every 15 days.
