The expired $25 billion stimulus package is causing airlines to furlough workers and cut flights. FOX Business’ Kristina Partsinevelos with more.

In a video to employees Monday, Southwest CEO Gary Kelly announced that the airline will need to “sacrifice more” by undergoing pay cuts in an effort to avoid layoffs and furloughs through 2021 amid the coronavirus pandemic’s ongoing impact on travel demand.

Kelly noted that since the act’s  Payroll Support Program (PSP) has expired, that Southwest “simply cannot afford to continue with the conditions required to maintain full pay and employment,” Kelly said.

U.S. airlines to accept billions in loans from federal government; still no deal to avoid furloughs

September 30, 2020

The announcement comes as tens of thousands of airline employees face the possibility of furloughs if Congress is unable to reach a deal to extend a separate grant program that gave airlines billions of dollars if they agreed to keep workers on the job through the end of September. While negotiations continue, a deal must be reached before midnight Wednesday.

“The payroll support and loan programs created by the CARES Act have saved a large number of aviation industry jobs, and kept workers employed and connected to their health care, during an unprecedented time,” Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said in a statement. “We are pleased to conclude loans that will support this critical industry while ensuring appropriate taxpayer compensation.”

Mnuchin also said Congress must extend the payroll support program, “so we can continue to support aviation industry workers as our economy reopens and we continue on the path to recovery.”

United Airlines  (UAL) – Get Report and its pilots reached an agreement that canceled 2,850 furloughs that had been scheduled for this week, the pilots’ union said Monday.

Shares of the Chicago airline at last check were up 5.5% to $36.07.

The Air Line Pilots Association said it voted to approve the Pandemic Recovery Letter of Agreement with United Airlines management. The accord prevents any United pilot from being furloughed at least until June. 

The agreement keeps all 13,000 United pilots employed.

The deal also offers a second round of early-separation options for all pilots age 50+ with 10 years of experience. And it reduces or terminates the effect of temporary work reductions based on a recovery in passenger demand or other market factors, the union said.

The agreement was ratified by about 58% of the pilots who voted on it.

“Our members understood that in order to

However, United will still furlough roughly 12,000 workers on October 1, a senior executive said during a press briefing — unless Congress extends
