They did get bailed out, and they are getting money. But to contribute to airlines not crying, fuel prices are the lowest they have been in 15 years. Obama drove the cost of jet fuel, and other fuels, through the roof with his green energy bullshit. It only sort of started recovering under Trump, and after the virus fuel prices crashed.
Airlines have always been somewhat subsidized though, sometimes more than others. But they're in pretty good shape in the CCP Virus era because fuel is so cheap.
