All one has to do is look at the current political environment, the drive by news media and see what is going on to predict future loads. The story is a resurgence of COVID-19, Florida and Texas pulling back and NY/NJ requiring a mandatory quarantine. Maximum political pressure, never let a good crisis go to waste.
Delta is pretty much saying expect furloughs, United May go bankrupt, American, who knows. The airlines are asking for another huge bailout. I hope I’m wrong for the many young folks we have, but having been through this before, I’d be planning for the worse and hoping for the best.
My word of advice if anyone cares, it’s temporary. Things will get better, it’s a cyclical industry. Fix your finances, Refinance or downsize, keep your car longer, get rid of cable, change your cellphone plan, eat in more, find free things to do. Live like a regional pilot again. Many of us have survived this before, those affected by this will also.
