(RTTNews) – American Airlines Group Inc. (AAL) will be forced to discontinue service to additional U.S. markets unless new coronavirus relief package is received, CEO Doug Parker told CNBC on Thursday.

The airline has already cut service to 13 cities through the month of November.

The airlines received aid under the federal Payroll Support Program or PSP under the CARES Act passed by Congress in March, that banned furloughs. They were hoping for an additional $25 billion in funding.

However, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday said that there won’t be a stand-alone airline aid package without a larger coronavirus stimulus package.

Early this month, with the expiration of US federal payroll program on September 30, American Airlines and United Airlines started to furlough their employees, that is expected to affect around 32,000 workers in total.

However, the companies in their memos to employees reportedly said they will be recalled

OSLO (Reuters) – An oil workers strike in Norway could cut output by almost a quarter next week, operators said on Thursday, though the union behind the industrial action in western Europe’s biggest crude and gas producer said a resolution was possible.

In total, 966,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day were expected to go offline by Oct. 14, the Norwegian Oil and Gas Association (NOG) said, triple the level of outages so far due to the strike over pay and conditions.

The strike has helped lift benchmark Brent crude

above $43 a barrel this week and the prospect of more shutdowns was one of the factors behind a 2.6% jump on oil prices on Thursday, as well as higher gas prices.

Crude oil and natural gas liquids will account for about 70% of the planned cuts with natural gas making up almost 30%, a Reuters calculation based on Norwegian

Car insurance customers could secure top savings if they are registered on the electoral roll as companies could view this as a sign of stability. Experts at uSwitch claim that simply appearing on the electoral roll can add up to 50 points on your Experian credit score.

Credit history is vital for insurance policies with those showing poor scores more likely to male claims on a policy.

Because of this, costs are traditionally higher for those with poor credit ratings meaning bringing this score down is vital to secure affordable terms.

Experts at uSwitch claim that signing up to the electoral roll is one of the easiest ways to instantly boost credit ratings which will run down to premium costs.

uSwitch spokesperson Florence Codjoe said taking some simple steps could see drivers “cut the cost” of their policy.

Pub company Greene King has announced plans to axe around 800 jobs and shut 79 of its pubs after business declined due to the introduction of 10pm hospitality curfew.

A spokeswoman for Greene King said: “The continued tightening of the trading restrictions for pubs, which may last another six months, along with the changes to government support was always going to make it a challenge to reopen some of our pubs.

“Therefore, we have made the difficult decision not to reopen 79 sites, including the 11 Loch Fyne restaurants we announced last week.

“Around one-third will be closed permanently and we hope to be able to reopen the others in the future.”
