I did some more digging and found this.
“Still, negotiations are expected to continue this week, as even with the president’s executive orders, there remains much to be resolved.”

Also in the article it says both side are still in agreement on the CARES act.
So looks like there is still hope after all.

Even then, airline payroll support is not mentioned at all.

Senate and the House need to 1)agree on the bill 2)Sent it to POTUS for signature
before it becomes operational and legal.
HEROES Act was dead on arrival in the Senate, who countered it with their own proposal.
Under the current administration, not one Republican governor (state) or US Congress person makes a decision without "bouncing it off" the President or one of the President's trusted circle.
right or wrong, this is what is happening
at the present time, we have no bill to attach an extension to.
Flight Attendant union is not happy about this, releasing this statement:

Dead on arrival or not, it is the responsibility of the Senate to do their ****ing job and pass their version. If the President vetoes what blended version the Congress passes, it’s on him. Like or dislike what’s in HR6800, the House did their job; they passed something, a few months ago in fact. The Senate as usual has done squat and had ample time to negotiate with the House, or to pass their own version and meet in conference..... But, McConnell chose to do NOTHING...
