Typically corporations have deals in place with creditors when they go in to bankruptcy. Hertz has no such deal. The feeling was they were going to file Chapter 7 which is liquidation. I was surprised to see them file chapter 11, but I'm pretty sure you'll see this go chapter 7. It is going to be at least 2 years till travel numbers are back to where they were before covid-19. Time is not on their side.
