UK airline Flybe collapses as virus hits weakened company

The struggling British airline Flybe collapsed Thursday amid drops in demand caused by the new coronavirus, leaving passengers stranded and threatening the viability of regional airports across the country. Flybe's fall highlights the damage that the virus outbreak has had on the airline industry, which has cut back on flights around the world as people avoid flying out of precaution. The British regional airline narrowly avoided bankruptcy in January but had continued to lose money.
