Send the guys from Southwest in to fix the 744, seeing as they are all such a bunch of legends (it'll be fixed in five minutes flat).
The 380 will fix itself.

I guess this will cost a few gold bits that the company apparently doesn't have. May be a naïve question, but doesn't insurance cover this sort of hiccup?

Okay, a little off topic, but the local handlers on the other side of the Country do a better job. 
This was the tail of an Air Jamaica A310 at JFKNY some years back, it was grounded for months after being towed out of a hangar.

The 747-400 'winglet' is a remove and replace part (I believe it's actually on the MEL that you can dispatch with one missing). Trailing edge damage on the 747 may be a bit tougher to patch.
