British Airways has suspended all flights into and out of mainland China, the airline announced on Wednesday, SIA reports.
The decision by British Airways comes as countries step up efforts against the novel coronavirus, which began in Wuhan, China, and has spread globally. United Airlines also announced Tuesday that it will temporarily reduce its schedule between the US and three Chinese cities -- Beijing, Hong Kong and Shanghai.
An airline industry official said that Trump administration officials briefed US airlines Tuesday on measures being taken. In discussions, the White House mentioned the possibility of banning flights to China, but said they are not now issuing such a ban. The administration would evaluate the situation daily to determine whether more measures need to be taken, the official said.
