Civil rights groups have filed federal lawsuits seeking to overturn the Georgia law.

(AP Photo/Rick Bowmer, File)Across the United States, air travel is recovering more quickly from the depths of the pandemic, and it is showing up in longer airport security lines and busier traffic on airline websites. "Our last three weeks have been the best three weeks since the pandemic hit, and each week has been better than the one prior,” American Airlines CEO Doug Parker said Monday. However, the airlines still have far to go before travel fully returns to pre-pandemic levels. Since the pandemic hit, air travel has picked up a few times — mostly around holidays — only to drop back down. The airline said people are booking leisure trips to beach and mountain destinations but business travel is still lagging.

Delta, United and Alaska airlines said Thursday, Jan. 14, 2021 they will bar passengers flying to Washington from putting guns in checked bags.

DALLAS – Southwest Airlines cautioned Thursday that the tenuous recovery in air travel could be fading as coronavirus cases spike across the United States. Airline stocks surged on Monday after Pfizer reported promising early results from a trial of a coronavirus vaccine. The report from Dallas-based Southwest added to fears that the spreading virus cases will hurt travel demand heading into Thanksgiving, a key period for airlines. It is unclear whether the weakening booking trends is directly related to the surge in virus cases. Airline stocks fell more sharply than broader market indexes.

Brandon Contreras represents the worst fears of the lucrative business travel industry. Work travel represented 21% of the $8.9 trillion spent on global travel and tourism in 2019, according to the World Travel and Tourism Council. Right now, Delta’s business travel revenue is down 85%. ExxonMobil cut business travel in February — even before the pandemic’s full impact was felt in the U.S. — because of falling global demand for oil. But he thinks new kinds of business travel could also emerge.

Since then, Delta has concentrated on hoarding cash — it raised $9 billion by mortgaging its frequent-flyer program — and cutting costs. Executives said 40,000 took leave during the summer; 12,000 were on leave in September. “We haven’t needed to furlough — our employees took care of that themselves,” Bastian said in an interview. They saved each other’s jobs.”Back in April, airlines reached agreements with the Treasury Department for up to $25 billion in payroll relief, with Delta getting $5.4 billion. Delta employees say the company helped them apply for taxpayer-funded unemployment benefits if they took a voluntary leave of absence.

Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian has put out what some are calling an aggressive enforcement of mask-wearing on the company’s flights. ”If you board the plane and you insist on not wearing your mask, we will insist that you don’t fly Delta into the future,” Bastian told Today in an interview Wednesday. The CEO said the stance is one he’s taking in order to keep crew and passengers safe during the pandemic. As the coronavirus pandemic continues, Delta flights have been booked to 60% of their capacity, Today reported after speaking with Bastian. “We’ve had some customers indicate that they have (an) underlying condition that makes wearing a mask dangerous for them,” Bastian said.

DALLAS Delta Air Lines will provide at-home coronavirus tests for some employees and Southwest Airlines will tighten its rule on face masks by ending exceptions for medical reasons. Reservations agents who don't work at hubs will also get at-home tests, the airline said. Delta has been testing employees at its Atlanta headquarters and so-called hub airports and expects to have tested all U.S. employees within the next four weeks. Southwest will go further on Monday by banning passengers who claim that a medical condition prevents them from wearing a mask. Ed Bastian, CEO of Delta, said his company has taken action against more than 100 passengers.

Growth has stalled, Delta CEO Ed Bastian said. Delta is the first U.S. airline to report financial results for the May-through-June quarter, and the numbers were ugly. Deltas second-quarter loss compared with a year-ago profit of $1.44 billion during what is normally a strong season for airlines. Atlanta-based Delta said its adjusted loss worked out to $4.43 per share, wider than the $4.16 per share average in a FactSet survey of analysts. Whether that happens at Delta could depend on how many employees accepted buyouts or early retirement offers by a Monday deadline.
