More airlines have announced winter flight cuts as the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic continues to bring misery for travellers. British Airways announced earlier this month it was ditching swathes of short-haul flights during the coming months.
Now rivals Lufthansa and SAS have also indicated they will both be axing services from winter schedules. German national carrier Lufthansa has confirmed it will cancel an unspecified number of services, while Scandinavian airline SAS will axe an estimated 1,600 flights throughout autumn.
Lufthansa was also forced to cut flights during the summer, blaming staff shortages, and it reported more cuts to its schedule from from late October to March 26. European routes and domestic services are set to be affected.
