The decision was made during a board of directors meeting on Sept. 16, which will help pay back HIC’s debt worth $900 million while $50 million will be used to cover operating expenses for the Wilshire Grand Center in Downtown Los Angeles, a hotel HIC has operated since 2017.

Another $600 million will be paid back through a bridge loan sometime in October as well as a secured loan next year each covering $300 million, the airline explained.
