400 planes are parked now...we won’t have 400 parked in the Fall. Gary said they’ve trimmed capacity by 30% for Fall. 30% of roughly 10k pilots is 3000. If bookings go way up this summer as things open they could always add more flights.

I think we run fat for awhile and see how bookings and demand goes. No point in laying off people if you just bring some right back. If things don’t look better by Spring/Summer 2021 we’ll be hurting and need some kind of personnel changes. Curious to also see how many will take the long term leave, early outs, etc.

I’m usually half glass full though. Too many chess pieces left on the board to worry now.
