Furloughs

Over the last 10 years the airlines have posted billions upon billions in profits, of which 96% of that went towards shareholder buybacks.
That 96% number is free cash flow, not profits. That number is also skewed by AA, which spent $12.9B on buybacks with almost $8B of negative free cash flow.
Remove AA, and the number is more like 60%, which is close to S&P averages.
