globebusiness People can’t afford to have money tied up in tickets they don’t need.

WEMUSTOKE globebusiness Tough shit! They gouge for tickets, baggage, snacks plus are getting a Bailout from the Feds.

globebusiness Yes they can. They're getting bailouts and charging extortionate prices for those getting stuck in other countries. ZERO sympathy.

globebusiness They are companies, they can go into debt so people can feed their families ffs.... Everyone else is making hard decisions that impact the future of their business, what makes them special?

globebusiness BS. They are paid to provide a service. No service=refund.

globebusiness Is that how badly the airlines and media are managed? Do they even deserve any bailout payments then? IMO, it’s a vehement NO!!!

rexglacer globebusiness The government has already paid for many flights back.

globebusiness Shameless, see you in court

globebusiness But they sure can afford to buy back shares for a decade so execs can cash in.

globebusiness

globebusiness that's their claim. not believable

globebusiness So.. *sets down sandwich* everyone who lost their jobs can?

globebusiness I don't believe it for one second. CEOs can take a cut, the profits can take a cut, and support for workers can go up. Will it hurt the bottom line? Of course. But at least they'll have staff to have back when all this is over & new customers who can appreciate such leadership
