The travel industry is pleading for more support as the latest coronavirus restrictions left the UK's airports at 'near-complete shutdown', with warnings they may have to close temporarily

While the new restrictions have been largely welcomed, the UK's travel industry has warned it needs more support to keep businesses running.

"The closure of travel corridors is understandable from a public health perspective but this adds to the current near-complete shutdown of the UK's airports, which are vital for our post-pandemic prosperity," said Airport Operators Association chief executive Karen Dee.

"Airports are doing so while running on empty - there is only so long they can run on fumes before having to close temporarily to preserve their business for the future."
