African airlines could lose $6 billion in passenger revenue in 2020, the International Air Transport Association said on Thursday, as flight restrictions due to the novel coronavirus hit the sector on the continent.

“The longer we wait, the more risk we would be exposed to,” he added in a teleconference with reporters.
