People prefer to stay home at the moment, and the airline industry is struggling to keep themselves at the surface. Will they get any aid from the government?
The Aid To Airline Industry From First Stimulus Check
In March, the airline sector had come to a standstill. Other countries had closed their border and the states within had also banned travel. Due to this, the different companies were struggling to make payments for salaries and other expenses. As a ray of hope came the first stimulus package.
The airline industry got $25 billion to pay salaries and sustain itself till September. However, with the period coming to a close, there is little progress in the sector.

βIf they need additional assistance, we stand ready to work with them to hammer out additional packages.β
