I pay zero attention to him. I would suggest the same. Not even worth it.

Flying will pick up at some point. All we can do is look at historical perspective. Right now this was about a 100 day event in China. They are slowly transitioning back to a functioning society.

We will also have a good idea, in terms of timeline, when Italy and other countries recover.

The bottom line is people are going to fly again. You can sit there and choose to think otherwise, but there is zero data to support everyone driving in their cars 18 hours to visit friends and family or taking Amtrak 3 days across the country.

9/11 caused a 30 percent drop in flying demand
Simple question, How long after 9/11 did it take to get back to pre 9/11 flying levels?

Right now demand has dropped off 90 percent and the economy is facing 20 to 30 percent near term unemployment.

this is a years not months problem.
