airlines like air france, klm, run by ben smith, facing acute crises right now.u think michael will have much success if he tries to push back against some of the programs that will be rolled out these airlines, at least in the short term? france has a battle in to convince the french they do butneed a just air france, they should also look at other airlines like him, but he is also pushing the european commission who is supposed not be giving aid to one airline over the others. the program seemed to be designed to target a favorite airline and he is complaining about airlines that have a commercial license in france, that is air france, but not ryanair. it is the way these programs are designed and he thinks the european commission could jump in and do something or he will go to court to try to get the approval of which would force fan -- would force france to change his program. this is what other countries are thinking of. it is a bit of a warning shot that other countries need to include ryanair and what they are thinking about doing. vonnie: does ryanair nee

. >> phil, thanks to you david, interesting piece out of ben smith and "the times" about bob iger andisney. just when you think you're out, they pull you back in. >> yeah. it was an interesting piece. there's been a lot of focus on disney we've been talking about it. many out there will say when they can reopen the parks, that's disney, that's also our parent company, comcast, which also has a number of theme parks. that will be a good sign certainly. it will be reflective of peoples willingness to potentially go back to business, so to speak. it's still much unclear how you exactly do that. iger talking to barron's last week, talking about taking peoples temperature. so many people are asymptomatic. and how many kids run a temperature anywhere and having nothing to do whether or not they have the virus. it is interesting to think about, you know, if this had happened a bit sooner, mr. iger would have stayed on as ceo. i think certainly one would have to anticipate the board would not want to make a change the way they did, in certainly the biggest crisis that disney faced. we talked
