What specific government COVID mandates are there on the airlines?
I do know that airlines are suffering because US citizens have been banned entry by many other countries thereby reducing the airlines schedule. Then, of course, many have chosen not to fly during this pandemic.
What do you know as far as these government imposed mandates?
Airlines have not been able to fill the planes to capacity due to social distancing and many routes have stopped flying due the lack of people traveling due to the shutdowns, etc last year. We canceled three different trips last year because of the city mandates at the locations we wanted to fly too, and I have heard many others have done the same.

Easy way to add some relief, is give a tax holiday to the businesses who were hit with the COVID related regulations and rules which directly targeted and harmed those businesses.
Because of the waste that was in the bill. I'm not saying this stuff isn't importation but does it really belong in this bill? Below is just some of the crap that should not be in this bill:
-JFK Center for the Arts...….. AGAIN
-13,000,000 Howard University (Kamala's alma mater)
-100,000,000 for NASA
-1 BILLION to Amtrak
-20 BILLION to USPS
-Bailing out pensions that were irresponsibly managed
-Paying off 110% of the debt for farmers...…...but only brown and black farmers
-Up to $21,000 for every federal employee with children, this is ON TOP of what everybody else gets.
-47.5 Million in administration fees to carry out the relief bill
-10,000 per person for student loan forgiveness
-270,000,000 to the National Endowment for the Arts and Humanities
-200,000,000 to museums and libraries (that have mostly been closed for the past year)
-10,000,000 for the preservation and maintenance of Native American languages (Covid prevented them
from speaking their language?)
-720,000,000 to social security administration but only 550 million goes for administration fees
-852,000,000 to AmeriCorps (73,000,000 to be spent for administration fees in carrying out the spending
of the money)
-50,000,000 for family planning programs
-300,000,000 for migrant and refugee assistance
-300,000,000 to National Public Broadcasting (NPR)
-25,000,000 for cleaning supplies for the Capitol building (how dirty is that place?)
-3 Billion to up grade the IT department at the VA
This is why republicans had an issue with this bill and it speaks volumes that democrats voted for it.
That's an impressive pile of pork. How can anyone defend this?
The cost of this boondoggle is over fifty-seven hundred dollars for every American.
And yet at the same time, Biden threw open the borders and we've been flooded with thousands of "migrants". Those "migrants" will put downward pressure on unskilled job salaries, thus displacing Americans in the workforce.
Not to mention illegal immigrants are soaking up the already over stretched COVID relief and social welfare resources. Why purposely import people we know will become wards of the state, who we know will soak up social welfare resources, in the middle of a crippled economy in the middle of a pandemic??

Explains a lot. GOP not wanting to support what is needed. Each item is valid after a year of GOP failure on the virus.

-Paying off 110% of the debt for farmers...…...but only brown and black farmers???? Where is that?
Why is bailing out airlines okay, but not farmers after they lose crops due to calamity? Food is more important than flying..no?
