LuxairTours are also affected, and will resume 1 May. The suspension comes into effect on 23 March, according to the company's website.

The company communicated this decision through its Facebook page on Friday. The decision comes one day after it was announced that Luxembourg's Findel airport will be closed to passengers from Monday 23 March to slow the spread of the coronavirus.

The aviation industry is in turmoil at the moment, and on Thursday the chief executive of Lufthansa warned that the future of aviation is in danger unless  states step in to provide aid.
