So your financial hassles start from July.
Many expats around the world have had such "hassles" for the last few months, maybe consider yourself a tad lucky?
Surprised me how appeared some thought Japan was the "new haven" where none of this CV19 stuff would apply, maybe not helped by the desire of the govt to delay reality in hopes of the 2020 olympics going ahead, I believe that delay will prove costly in longer term; just IMHO.
Have heard at least one carrier in Japan has given notice/not renewed contracts in a limited way to gaijin, would suggest having dragged their feet the airlines are playing catchup in how they will deal with pilot numbers - if they finally decide they have to scale back.
