    Delta Air Lines announced Friday that it is cutting its capacity by 70% as travel demand plunges to unseen levels due to the coronavirus pandemic.

    The Atlanta-based company said that it is experiencing “unprecedented revenue impact.”

    The airline industry has been hit the hardest by the coronavirus pandemics, especially after the U.S. instituted a travel ban from most of Europe.

    Coronavirus Pandemic Causes Delta To Cut Capacity

    Cancellations are rising dramatically with net bookings now negative for travel over the next four weeks. To put that in perspective, we’re currently seeing more cancellations than new bookings over the next month,” the company said in a news release.

    Other measures Delta is implementing include the following:

    • Suspending flights to continental Europe, except for London
    • Instituting a hiring freeze and offering voluntary short-term, unpaid leaves immediately
    • Parking up to 300 aircraft

    Along with other major airlines, Delta is currently waiving change fees for all flights booked between March 1-31.

    The no-fee flight changes also apply to international flights previously booked and scheduled to fly in March.

    Atlantafi.com is bringing you the latest on the coronavirus pandemic. Here are some helpful links:

    Once you get your passport, you should be ready for your trip. Make sure you have found the cheapest flights from Atlanta that are on sale.

    Delta Air Lines recently reassured travelers that its most consistent delicacy — Biscoff cookies — aren’t going anywhere.

    “Yep, still got ’em,” the airline recently posted on Twitter.

    The tweet was in response to United Airlines, which announced that it was removing Biscoff cookies for a while and replacing them with Oreo thin mints.
     
    The reaction was swift from United’s fans though, with many travelers saying that NO ONE wants Oreo thin mints over Biscoffs.
     
    United said it will bring Biscoff cookies back in the spring though. Responding to the tweetstorm, United tweeted:
    “Internet, we won’t go baking your heart. We have an ongoing rotation of snacks… so here’s how the cookie crumbles for this round:
    • OREO Thins = on board March 1
    • Biscoff = comes back May 1
    • Stroopwafel = here always
       

    Airlines That Serve Biscoff Cookies

    As it stands, the number of airlines that serve Biscoff cookies are down to a handful. Including United’s seasoning offerings, they are:
    • American Airlines
    • Alaska Airlines
    • American Airlines
    • Delta Air LInes
    • WestJet
    Biscoff cookies are gluten-free ginger spice treats made from cookie butter. The main ingredient is comprised of speculoos cookie crumbs, fat, flour, and sugar.
     
    Many a baker has tried to make Biscoff cookies, but one of the simplest recipes is HERE.

    Japan Airlines is inviting 50,000 people to fly for free to the island nation. The deal is only for visitors to Japan in summer 2020.

    The offer is part of a marketing campaign to get people to visit less-frequented cities. If you want to explore Japan, now’s your time. The Travel period is from this specific time period only: July 1, 2020 to September 30.

    Here’s How To Travel To Japan For Free

    Japan is offering up to 100,000 seats on Japan Airlines domestic routes. Here are the details you need to know:

    • This campaign provides “round-trip air tickets”, so the number of available passengers is “maximum 50,000”.
    • There are a limited number of available seats, so in some cases no destinations will be shown.

    To take advantage of the offer, you have to do three things:

    1. Click on the Application Screen: Trip with JAL application screen and choose a departure location, day, number of people and time slot
    2. Choose Among Four Destinations: Enter passenger information and apply
    3. Get Your Destination Confirmed: You’ll get an email within 3 days of applying telling you your destination
       

    Visit this link to get the deal.

    Since air traffic drops off significantly late at night, early morning offers most airlines and airports a clean slate from which to launch a new day of on-time departures. And while these best intentions often don’t make it to lunchtime, booking an early-morning flight can mean avoiding the worst delays of the day.

    Once you get your passport, you should be ready for your trip. Make sure you have found the cheapest flights from Atlanta that are on sale.  

    To Atlanta is one of the most convenient places to travel to and from. A large part of that is because Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport is so accessible.

    Not only is it the world’s busiest airport, but it’s state-of-the-art in every way. If you’re interesting in traveling around Atlanta via car or even on scooter, here’s what to know.
