Dela management wants to have everyone in fat categories so we can be ready to pounce when people decide Covid isn’t as scary as they’re being led to believe by the media. And they are correct, in my opinion. If we furlough, and bump and flush, it’ll take years to catch up, if a recovery occurs rapidly. I just flew 10 legs in 4 days, and all but one or two flights were as full as we could be, under our restricted load factor. I know it was a holiday weekend, but it’s obvious, at least to me, that slowly, people are getting over their Covid fears and getting on with their lives. This holiday season, I think people will come back in force, and by next summer, vaccine or not, we will be making money again, with business travelers back as well. It would be silly to train and retrain thousands of pilots. We can’t do it, and they don’t want to. They just want cost savings while we are at it, with an ALV reduction, that will affect the international categories, way more than domestic.

Just my $.02 whether you like it or not. (Not directed at you, Denny)
