I think this bid will have to be walked back, they just want to try and get concessions before they do.
I also think this bid will be greatly altered by clean ups and subsequent bids. That also does not preclude future displacement bids. We are still in the first quarter of this COVID game - way too early to see how it turns out.

If the virus weakens and we get a quick vaccine and treatments it could be very short lived.

If we get a nasty second wave or the first wave really never ends airlines may be in big trouble. The media with their sensationalistic reporting are not helping. How the public perceives COVID is probably just as important as the reality of COVID.
