Restricted Travel guide-which airlines are still flying and where

With borders closed, global movement restricted and uncertainty around when services will resume, it is no surprise that the majority of the world’s airlines have grounded the majority of their fleets.

There is, however, a skeleton network of flights operating around the world to ensure vital connectivity and transportation of residents needing to return home.

Information is changing quickly in this climate, but the below is accurate to the best of my knowledge as of March 24. Not all routes where airlines are operating are known, so if you are due to fly it is best to check directly with the airline if your flight will still be operating.
