Coronavirus in Wales: Updates on 20 May 2020 - BBC News
Latest developments including the prospect of hundreds of British Airways jobs being lost.
British Airways is consulting with unions on proposals to cut more than 1,000 jobs in south Wales.

This is confirmation of terrible news for BA workers.

Job losses are expected across the aerospace and defence industry which employs 23,000 people in Wales.

The industry has already been badly hit by coronavirus and it's almost certain that it will take years to fully recover.

The umbrella body, Aerospace Wales, told MPs last week that up to 8,000 jobs could go here.

BA's maintenance facility at Rhoose in the Vale of Glamorgan services the company's long-haul fleet of planes.

These flights are the ones that passengers are expected to take longer to return to, so demand for these planes may be reduced for years.

The facility is also a user of the Welsh Government-owned Cardiff Airport where the BA planes arrive for service. BA had said it would cut 12,000 in total from its operations.

There have also been warnings of global job losses at Airbus and GE Aviation. Both companies are major employers in Wales.
