LONDON, May 11 (Reuters) - British Airways-owner IAG
is not in a position where it has to ask for a specific
bailout from the government to see it through the coronavirus
pandemic, its chief executive said on Monday.
Britain's government has said stricken airlines should first
exhaust all options for raising external cash, such as via their
shareholders, before they ask the treasury for more support.
"We're not in that position," Willie Walsh told a
parliamentary committee hearing.
