With the increasing number of countries advising against all but essential travel to other european countries, itll be interesting to see how much of the schedule withstands for the rest of the month and into September.

This could all be over very shortly, except the media won't let it go away.
Think everyone everywhere will get corona. Many millions probably have had it already & don't even know it.
Many people are taking less & less notice of what govts have to say.

EasyJet is cutting its flight schedule further after the introduction of new lockdown measures in the UK and mainland Europe, saying it will only run a maximum of 20% of planned flights for the rest of the year.
The announcement comes only weeks after easyJet said it would be cutting capacity to 25% for the rest of 2020. The airline has taken more drastic measures than the rival budget airline Ryanair, which recently said it would run about 40% of its planned capacity from November to March.
