Global Business Travel Association: Administration, Congressional Leaders Must Continue Stimulus Package Negotiations Or Jobs, Economy Will Suffer Greatly

GBTA Urges Leaders on Both Sides of the Aisle to Stop Playing Politics, Immediately Resume Talks to Save One of the U.S. Economy’s True Employment, GDP Drivers

GBTA expressed deep concern today over the breakdown of COVID-19 supplemental funding discussions between the White House and Congress.

The global pandemic has wreaked havoc on the business travel industry. In the initial round of CARES Act funding, U.S. airlines agreed to forego layoffs in exchange for $25 billion in grants. This agreement expired September 30. Since then, media reports of massive airline layoffs have noted that as many as 100,000 workers will be let go in the near future unless elected leaders take action immediately. According to the World and Travel Tourism Council (WTTC), international GDP losses could total as much as $5.5 trillion – with job losses for 2020 projected at nearly 200 million jobs.
