如今，世界各地的机场安静多了，几乎没有人乘坐飞机，因为旅行限制有助于减缓冠状病毒的传播。

达美航空将拥有最繁忙的航班时刻表，每天从三个机场起飞51次;从肯尼迪机场起飞29次，从拉瓜迪亚起飞15次，从纽瓦克起飞7次。

The airlines say the reduction in flights is due to a combination of the high number of coronavirus cases in the New York metro area, an effort to minimize employees' potential exposure to the virus and the sharp reduction in demand.

这些航空公司说，航班减少的原因是纽约市区大量出现冠状病毒病例，这是为了尽量减少员工接触病毒的可能，同时也是因为需求急剧下降。
