Online travel companies have started to fee the pinch of the coronavirus outbreak. “There has been a slowdown in outbound travel bookings since the break of coronavirus. Travellers are being cautious in making their (outbound) travel plans,” said a spokesperson at MakeMyTrip. “We do expect a potential impact on the overall business if the outbreak spreads westwards...
