Atlas Air refuses to repay US bailout funds
Atlas Air is having a good year financially compared to passenger airlines that are hurting because of COVID travel restrictions. It isn't apologizing for bailout money it received from the U.S. government. (www.freightwaves.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Let's see... i lost everything, job, home, money living in vehicle no gas, winter now, food stamps stopped by Trump, getting hard to find food. No healthcare access. Homeless shelter are covid-19 Camps.. 2B$ airlines Fu#x this political economy Shit!!!
I know a 747 is big, but that paint scheme makes it look huge!
Why the hell go after them? After all, they are transporting those illustrious Chinese made masks and PPE that we in the US can not seem to make ourselves. Probably faster delivery than by boat...you know ..Slow boat to/from China. Legislation in DC probably let US industry offshore yeeears ago. Cargo is only delivering what the US ought have been doing already
Congress is the body that passed such laws that allowed for manufacturing companies move offshore and then wonder why we have no one making the needed PPE for this here in the States. That it has to be shipped somehow to the US from that offshore manufacturing facility means it needs to be shipped as fast as possible.
Congress should be happy that at least there are companies that can do such, even if they are making some profit.

Atlas was granted 406Million towards payroll but their hard working pilots are only paid 50% of the industry standard? Said funds were not needed as business is booming?
As a tax payer, they should return the money on principle, regardless of laws, rules or what ever. Then give their employees a profit sharing raise.

May Atlas reap as they have sown.
- I used a VoIP- phone number (!!!)
- “ there was something wrong with my account number” (which I use since 10+ years)).
Of course, they did not tell me any of that until they had run out of funds....
This was all a munchin/trump hoax!
