US Airlines -- Tick, Tick, Tick -- August 30, 2020

Who would have guessed? Good, bad, or indifferent. Whether domestic airlines "make it" or not and whether there will be massive lay-offs in the airline industry pretty much lies with Nancy Pelosi. It appears White House and US Senate eager to "make a deal" but Schumer / Pelosi demands are so egregious, not likely to happen before end of September, if ever.

I think internal polling will drive Pelosi's decision. 

American airlines: cuts October flying capacity by 55%. Links everywhere -- Bloomberg with paywall, but same story over at Fox Business.

United Airlines: will eliminate "change" fees ... permanently. Speaking of which, did the airlines ever eliminate those fuel surcharge fees? LOL. As late as 2019, some airlines still imposed such fees.
