Around 70% to 80% of passengers headed to or coming from China are not showing up at airports for their flights, the Airline Operators Council in Manila said Monday. Council chairman Allan Nepomuceno said this trend in international flights may also affect domestic flights and the country’s tourism industry at large. "Several airlines already confirmed to us there are about 70% to 80% of the passengers are not showing up,” he said. The low number of passengers showing up for their flights to and from China comes on the heels of the 2019 novel coronavirus outbreak, although the Department of Health has assured that there is no confirmed case in the country yet. <br/>
