Guvnor,
Surely this cannot be true. Because, if it is then you are absolutely correct - all airlines will have to cease flying which means that the world's economy will not just collapse but will completely shut down. The world cannot function without airlines. There will, quite simply, be no jobs for anyone in any industry whatsoever. If this is true, all governments must act to force the insurance industry to cover the airlines adequately and responsibly. This is one of the most ridiculous knee-jerk reactions I have heard of yet. People need to calm down and get a grip. It doesn't help when they keep showing airplanes crashing over and over and over again 24 hours a day on the TV but the reality is that it is still more likely that you will be hit by lightning before being in a airplane crash, and the insurance industry knows that. Profiteering from this crisis is criminal.
