Restructure the upper level management of your airlines.
The airlines are saving tons of money with the lower fuel costs.

[Kiteboarding]

No. Adapt to the market. make flights cheaper. It's not the tax payers responsibility to save your business.

[MaloneMantooth]

I'd rather bail out the airlines as they employ alot of of paying politicians and giving aid to other countries.

[Mando_Trucker]

Oh gosh just give them a unlimited budget already.

[eggscramblesandstuff]

The Airlines treat the People like $hit.

Wasn't she one of those that said we can't talk about George Soros yesterday?

“WASTING $5BN PER MONTH” WHILE THE REST OF THE COUNTRY IS STRUGGLING TO SURVIVE. CAPITALISM AT ITS FINEST

[darrinnolen]

hell no. manage your finances better. its not the tax payers job to bail you people out. with as much as yall charge for flights and baggage you should 100% be able to afford your bills. NO. these corporations need to stop lobbying for more cash and resources. so ridiculous. if you fail and go out of business its your own fault as travel was deemed essential and YOUR business didn't actually close.

[thomaskelly]

Mr president I beg you absolutely is enough enough or in this case too much....they have to adapt to the current situation and change with it or go out of business if you do this they will be back 6 months from now with their hands out.

[mentonerodominicano]

I agree with salary support for the employees and crew, but only that. No subsidies for anything else.

[seanzyw.]

How about we start with the top-tier management CEOs and Below let's take a 25% cut in pay for the time being that way we can keep the bottom tier workers that actually help the airline's move.

[kristensorensen]

Let the airlines put up preferred stock as security then let them borrow the free money they want from the taxpayers. No more hand outs to corporations that is added to the national debt!! NO!!

[tatedsinner]

If the government is no longer going to give stimulus to citizens then these billion dollar companies should get a dime.

[Travismichael]

Here comes the money! Can’t do it for the people but can surely help the airlines out

[randallbermudez]

Donald Trump's policies has lead to a recession

[TopOfPyramid]

Ive met more girls on Tinder who were flight attendants... they could’ve just as easily been Uber drivers though. I dont think bailing out a flawed system is the answer, but we’ve seen how the US feels about that

[randallbermudez]

Donald Trump's trade war has lead to a recession

[waldensmith]

The Airlines are struggling and Hundreds of workers can be laid. I trust Pelosi will try and speed up the Stimulus Pkg and show some concern for the airline industry.

[dansmith-vusj]

Why should they get more money and we do not get not thing that dose not seem right

[scaldon]

No bailout for airlines. What did tgey do with the millions they made all these years ? No bailout.
