Spain’s transport ministry is seeking to help airlines tap bank state-backed loans but more help may be needed, Minister Jose Luis Abalos said.
“I do believe airlines will tap those loans, but it is possible that they may need a reinforcement to those credit-lines, which now are enough to help liquidity only in the short-term,†Abalos said at a press conference. “They will almost certainly need more help in the future, for treasury, and to recover their activity.â€
Spain has also formed a working group with Germany, France and Italy within the European Commission and may have some options on May 13, Abalos said.
