US airlines are giving customers more time to change their flights to China without incurring fees as the coronavirus continues to spread, and as American authorities raise travel precautions for the country.
American Airlines and Delta Air Lines on Monday each extended change fee waivers through the end of February. Earlier, they had issued waivers through the end of January.
That means people scheduled to fly before then on either airline to Beijing or Shanghai --- the two cities that each company serves in mainland China --- can change to a different flight without paying a fee to do so.
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Monday raised its travel precaution for China to its highest level. That means it's advising travelers to "avoid nonessential travel" to the country. Previously, only Hubei province --- where Wuhan is located --- carried such a warning.
