had the same feeling... thing is if there's no rebound this summer holiday especially now that the olympics looks like it's not happening, we have basically bleed out for months for no reason while others are preserving the cash...

And sources from the finance/banking industry is that, no one is lending any airlines money these days, and banks have been refusing mortgages for travel industry employee as they deemed too risky.....
