End of February Jet2 flight to Geneva for ski trip cancelled due to uncertainty of Covid situation

All french and swiss ski resorts closed unless you have identification showing local resident.Italy closed full stop.
Update from france due on 19.1.21.
Tour operators cancelled holiodays early December.
In a nutshell. No ski Holidays for any UK skiers.
looking like April at the earliest. One slight problem about April is the decreasing amounts of snow.
Not looking good for my crew this year.

GLA new accounts lodged and it doesn’t look good.

It will not look good for any airport with a high/very high dependency on passenger traffic whether business or leisure

These accounts to December 2019 were signed off on 23/24 June 2020 but only lodged on 24 December just ahead of the extended filing deadline - the impact of COVID-19 is I suspect much greater than was envisaged 6-9 months ago

I note in the comments below the article, one Joe Curry's contribution . . . . "If Emirates start flying exclusively from Edinburgh Airport along with the High Street leisure fleet. Glasgow Airport would be mortally wounded."

The next few months are key for every airport to start rebuilding its airline base and route network but it will be a 'dog eat dog' situation against a backdrop of lower passenger volumes for the next 2 to 4 years

Looks like KLM have suspended UK flights.
All of their night stoppers have positioned empty back to AMS this evening, flights for next few days are showing as cancelled on FR24 and their Twitter feed is inundated with customers who have had their flights cancelled.

Anyone know how long they are suspending flights for?
