Delta CEO: Business will take 'two to three years' to recover from coronavirus

Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian told employees Wednesday that it could take two to three years for the airline's business to recover from the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. The airline is carrying about 5% of its normal passenger loads, Bastian told CNBC in an interview, as demand for air travel has nearly disappeared because of the virus and measures to stop it from spreading such as stay-at-home orders.
