WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The head of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce said on Wednesday that the government will not need to bail out U.S. airlines in the wake of sagging travel demand due to concerns over the coronavirus.
"We don't need any bailouts here," U.S. Chamber Chief Executive Tom Donohue said at a news conference with travel leaders aimed at reassuring Americans to keep traveling. "Bottom line is we're going to run just like business as usual - with a little higher heartbeat and get it done."
