United just extended China and Hong Kong cancellations as the coronavirus continues to wreak havoc on airlines and the entire travel industry

, and barring entry by foreign citizens, who have been to China within the previous 14 days.

American Airlines last week suspended its flights to Hong Kong through February 20, after earlier halting its service to mainland China. Hong Kong-based Cathay Pacific Airways said last week that it would cut 90% of its flights to mainland China, and 30% of its capacity globally, due to the sharp fall in demand."As we continue to evaluate our operation between our U.S. hubs and Beijing, Chengdu, Shanghai and Hong Kong, we have decided to extend the suspension of those flights until April 24.

A spokesperson for the airline said that passengers with tickets on the affected dates could either reschedule travel, or request a full refund. As the virus continues to spread around the globe, airlines are taking additional precautions on international flights, including stocking planes with masks, disinfecting planes between flights, and offering additional instructions to flight attendants.SEE ALSO:
