CHICAGO (Reuters) - Delta Air Lines (DAL.N) has seen a moderate improvement in demand but continues to burn through around $27 million of cash each day, its chief financial officer said, and warned that any COVID-19 vaccination process could take between six and 12 months.

Vaccines dont end pandemics, vaccinations do, CFO Paul Jacobson said at the Cowen 2020 Global Transportation & Sustainable Mobility Conference on Wednesday, adding that the airlines post-crisis focus would be on reducing debt.
