Delta Air Lines Inc. laid out plans to resume 50 international routes later this year and next that have been grounded by the collapse in travel demand amid the coronavirus pandemic.
International flying evaporated after some countries banned travel from virus hot spots and others imposed quarantines. Passenger volume on such flights in the week ending August 16 was just 12% of year-ago levels, according to Airlines for America. International recovery will lag that of U.S. markets, Delta said in a statement Friday.
