Southwest saying 5 years, lol... right.

The others saying 2-3, makes perfect sense. They are going to be conservative and over estimate the recovery time. If they say 18 months and it takes 24-36, they look horrible and their stock takes another dive. If they say 24-36 and it is over in that time, they look good for predicting it properly. If it is back in 18, that's fantastic news and is a win. To me, if they say 24-36 that really means 18-24.
