Yeah, the governments support them. Most major airlines are quasi government offshoots anyways, considered strategic national economic assets. They always get some kind of government bailout. Similar to railways in that respect.

If individual airlines go under, the assets will be consolidated under at least one remaining airline per nation, to be supported. It's not like government is willing to lose the tech or the infrastructure.
