SHARE US carriers American Airlines and United Airlines pulled back furlough orders of nearly 27,000 employees after US Congress passed a $1.9 trillion Covid-19 stimulus bill on Wednesday, according to ABC News. The bill, which includes an extension of the Payroll Support Programme (PSP), is expected to be signed by the US President Joe Biden on Friday. “For our 13,000 colleagues who received worker adjustment and retraining notification notices last month, those are happily cancelled … you can tear them up,” ABC News cited American chief executive Doug Parker as saying in a letter to employees. Last month, Texas-based American sent furlough notices to 13,000 employees as federal aid was due to expire this month. The Illinois-based United also warned almost 14,000 of its staff in January that they might be furloughed.
