It is all relative
Air India got a $40 Bn bail out from the Indian Govt
It was nationalized in 1974 I think.
40 yrs = 40 Bn; so 1 yr = 1Bn
or about $3M a day I think, even with FULL flights!

The Malaysians still have quite a way to go to reach them.
I could be wrong, if someone can search the extent of bailout, we will have some better numbers

Jet was bailed out for 250M I think, just peanuts.
