Airlines cut flights to S. Korea

Airlines are cutting flights to the Republic of Korea as the outbreak of Middle East respiratory syndrome reduces travel demand to the country. On Saturday, Air China will cut three of its 24 weekly linking Beijing and Seoul until the end of August. China Eastern Airlines will cut its weekly Kunming-to-Seoul flights from five to two from Monday until June 30. From July 1 to the end of August, there will be three flights a week.
