The chances that Treasury would condition any grant, loan or other form of support on eliminating a revenue source hovers at zero only because statisticians maintain that there can't be less than a 0% probability.

Much, much, much more likely that free upgrades, lounge access and anything not revenue-based goes away when large corporate customers figure out that it can all be negotiated away for better rates.

Don't for a minute believe that this is going to improve the creature comforts for travelers. May preserve their jobs, but it might not be the "luxury" they've been used to.
