DUBAI: United Arab Emirates-listed Air Arabia is in talks with the government over financial assistance to help it get through the coronavirus crisis, its chief executive said on Wednesday.
Asked if the budget carrier would need interim funding from the government, CEO Adel Ali told a virtual CAPA aviation summit: “We have put a request in. If it comes, we will be very happy. It will help us to pay some of our outstanding quicker. If it doesn’t, I think we can survive hopefully for some time to come.”
