May 5 (Reuters) - Qantas Airways QAN.AX on Tuesday said it would extend flight cancellations into June and July, and added that it secured further debt funding that should support the airline through to the end of 2021 if the coronavirus crisis prolongs.
The airline said it had secured A$550 million ($352.99 million) in funding against three of its wholly-owned Boeing (NYSE:BA) 787-9 aircraft, taking the company's net debt to within the middle of its target range at A$5.8 billion.
"The Group has sufficient liquidity to respond to a range of recovery scenarios, including one where the current trading conditions persist until at least December 2021", the carrier said in its statement.
