Default 1.9 trillion COVID relief bill

I’m having trouble finding what additional support there is for the airlines with the new COVID relief bill that just passed the senate.

anyone have an idea how much (if any) is set aside for the transportation industry and payroll support? Personal opinions aside of kicking the can down the road... I’m just curious as to if anything is included for the airlines.

The relief bill itself didn't pass the Senate, a budget provision that would allow them to pass a relief bill via reconciliation is what passed the Senate.

There isn’t any money set aside for the airlines in this bill at this moment.
