London Gatwick Airport, the UK’s second largest airport, announced on Wednesday it will cut up to 600 jobs, nearly a quarter of its workforce, as a result of the impact of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic.
The company plans to carry out “a significant restructure across its business designed to further reduce operating and staff costs in light of the dramatic impact COVID-19 has had on its passenger and air traffic numbers,” it said in a press release.
