As a result of the Covid-19, the American Airlines airline reduced a large percentage of its commercial flights, due to the fact that since the restriction of free entry decreed by the different governments, they could not make trips to all destinations, in addition to the fact that many people were complying with quarantine to avoid contagion.
Currently, some countries have commented that the spread of the virus has been controlled and gradually people will be able to resume their activities, for airlines, there are various modifications that must be made, in addition to strictly adhering to the new security protocols, which could be such as those mentioned in our previous article entitled Social distancing during commercial flights.
