Delta Airlines will send 3,000 flight attendants and stewards for an unpaid vacation

Airlines are experiencing the worst crisis in the history of the industry due to the covid-19 pandemic, which paralyzed air travel. The coronavirus crisis has so far deprived tens of thousands of people in air travel. Airlines warn that the recovery of the industry will take years. According to German Lufthansa, the sector will reach pre-crisis levels in 2024 at the earliest.

In the second quarter, Delta reported a net loss of $ 5.72 billion (CZK 127.7 billion) due to the effects of the pandemic crisis, while a net profit of $ 1.44 billion a year ago. The number of passengers carried fell by 93 percent and operating revenues by 88 percent to $ 1.47 billion.

Last month, Delta announced to pilots that if it agreed to a guaranteed minimum wage, it would not have to fire from their ranks.
