Officials will brief President Trump on Thursday afternoon on their plans for assistance to airlines

WASHINGTON—Officials will brief President Trump on Thursday afternoon on their plans for assistance to airlines, which are eligible for grants and loans as part of a $2.2 trillion economic relief package, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said Thursday.

“We hope to get to a lot of the airlines starting tomorrow and over the weekend with preliminary information,” he said in an interview with CNBC. “It is our objective to make sure that, as I’ve said, this is not a bailout, but that airlines have the liquidity to keep their workers in place.”

“That’s the next big thing we’ll be rolling out,” he added.
