The word starting to come out is that we are burning through over $120 million PER DAY.

$120M times 365 = $43.8B.

Operating Expenses for 2019 were $39B. Includes $9B in fuel, $2.5B in landing fees and other rent.

Possible, but the $120M/day number looks like it's a bit high. And assumes zero revenue.
I'm sure that the burn rate is insanely high, but $120M/day just sounds a bit too high. My uneducated guess (based on lowering some expenses) is $90-95M/day. Still outrageously bad and $8B is gone in less than 3 months at that rate.

Just for reference, on one of our (Delta) video updates from Managment it was mentioned we were burning approximately $40 million/day. Not sure if that is getting any better now that mass cancellations have begun and we aren’t flying practically empty planes everywhere.

Yes, cut in more than half. That lowers the annual number by (uneducated spitball) $5B or so? And we're using less fuel which cuts another (uneducated guess) $2B off the cost. Total annual fuel cost could be coming in at $2B. We'll have to see what the Q1 numbers look like.

Looks like they may have met their numbers of volunteers or close to that at least

Now if everyone gets a 50 hour line awarded for April
there should not be furloughs I hope

So, no hand shaking anymore? Do I not need to show that I am not carrying a weapon?
You are good, hopefully no F/A will have you arrested for assault with a dead weapon.

Delta's salaries and related costs for 2019 was $11.2B. That's $30.7M/day for payroll alone.

United's salaries and related costs for 2019 was $12.1B. That's $33.2M/day for payroll alone.
