The US Treasury Department is taking billions more and taking American Airlines under the wings.
The US carrier would be approved at least $ 3,09 billion, reports Swiss Aviation. This is supposed to preserve shaky jobs. The first partial payment was made in mid-January. The government funds were distributed to the airline and its subsidiaries Envoy Air, Piedmont Airlines and PSA Airlines. “The additional financial resources enable us to reinstate employees on leave and not have to quit permanently. We can also resume air travel in cities and towns that depend on us, ”said Doug Parker, American Airlines chief executive officer.
