Delta Airlines cancels flights from Seattle to China amid coronavirus outbreak

Delta Airlines is temporarily canceling some of its flights to China, including flights from Seattle to Beijing and Shanghai, due to the coronavirus outbreak.

Delta said it will reduce the number of weekly flights from the U.S. to China from 42 to 21 beginning February 6. The flight reduction is expected to last until April 30. However, the airline said it will “continue to monitor the situation and may make additional adjustments as the situation continues to evolve.”

The airline has daily service connecting Beijing and Detroit and Seattle, and Shanghai and Atlanta, Detroit, Los Angeles and Seattle, according to a press release. Delta said it will offer three to four weekly flights on the same routes.

Beginning Feb. 1, Delta will be reaching out to accommodate affected customers on alternate flights. The reduced schedule is expected to be reflected on Delta.com starting on Feb. 1.
