Looks like CARES money is confirmed through the most recent Union Q&A. Good news in the meantime.

Bandaid on a bullet wound bro .
That might stop the bleeding a little. Like the email said , that money is only for payroll and payroll related expenses. For everything thing else they have to burn through cash on hand to make ends meet . That won’t last long . Come sept or oct it’s not gonna be pretty .
Take the free money for 30 hrs and work on a plan b in case you don’t have one . Something to tide you over fo 6 mo to a year .

Never said it solves all the problems. It does give time for the industry to recover at least somewhat. Way better than getting nothing and everyone getting furloughed immediately.

I would make more money on unemployment than I make at Air Wisconsin

Until July 31st, sure. After that you're making pennies compared to even FO pay. Especially if you are MKE based

So here’s a question...how much flying can someone on reserve really expect in ORD given the current scenario? I was an IAD lineholder and pretty bottom of the totem pole (about 50 from the bottom) and trying to figure out if I need a crashpad or hotel and logistics.
