Boeing suffered $2.4b losses, whilst SIA suffered about $1b in last quarter...
it seems like the air travel industry will be in the red for quite a long time.. :(

boeing is a manufacturer and sia is an operator. Operator can cut costs quite fast. manufacturers face cancelled orders and high depreciation and can't costs to the bone quickly.

That's true...will there be a possibility Boeing could go bankrupt at this rate it's going?

It's a national strategic asset. It might be mothballed but is too important to fail.

Looks like aviation and tourism industry may not be able to recover anytime in the near future.
