The needs of people begin to overshadow the need for airlines
Domestic and international travel bans resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic have grounded more than 66 per cent of the world’s passenger aircraft leaving governments scrambling to prevent airlines from going out of business.
Globally governments have so far stumped up more than $85 billion in loans, grants, and subsidies to prop up the civil aviation industry, with regional players no less affected than those in Europe, the US or Australia.
