excerpt:
Last week, the Air Transport Association, sponsored by the airlines, reported that advance bookings of 60 to 90 days were off 40% in the Pacific region.

Several other analysts said Friday they hadn't issued research on the effect of SARS on airlines, so couldn't comment on the record.

Joe Hopkins, a spokesman for United Airlines, said the carrier has canceled 16 round-trip flights this month from Singapore to Hong Kong, but all other scheduled flights are continuing as usual. He said he couldn't comment on how passenger traffic has been affected by worries about the disease.
