A British Airways flight to Milan was delayed when three passengers refused to travel over coronavirus fears.
Molly Hunter, an NBC journalist on the BA flight to Milan, tweeted: “At #Heathrow, our BA #Milan flight is delayed – the captain just announced there are passengers (I count 3) on board who don’t want to travel due to #coronavirus.
A spokesman of the airline told the flight was only held up for up to 15 minutes, with passengers deciding they didn’t want to fly and getting off the flight.
