Not exactly. With everything that happened this year we will still have taken delivery of 12 new 320s in 2020. 16 more coming in 2021 loaded heavily towards the second half of the year. Without the 319s it is kind of a wash. Now, if they bring back some of the 319s we will need to hire more I am thinking. Spirit owns all the 319s so they are a perfect tool to use to manage our flight volume. If demand stays low, keep them parked. If demand comes back at all, well, so do the 319s
