Let’s look at another example. FL, “no travel restrictions in place”.. been to FLL lately? Much different than JFK.
So when does govenor cuomo say hey everyone is free to travel. I won’t fine you. I won’t make you take a test then quarantine for 3 days then take another test? If covid is here to stay forever like the CEO of one the the vaccines you’re likely to get says it will.. what’s the cut off? When 100 people a day have it? When 1 person a day has it? When is that? Next year? Next month? A decade? You and I have no clue.
I’m not saying that we won’t be back to “normal” like everyone says, but I also thought like most covid would be gone by now and we would be making money again. So I’m sorry that you see major growth out of NYC and I do not. Given what is happening all over the world today, it’s not a hard to believe that travel to and from NYC could be severely depressed for years to come, or better yet depressed enough to
limit growth.
so if you think that’s laughable. Ok. Not offended. I’m not saying leave NYC. Maybe focusing else where may be advantageous for the security of JetBlue and yours an my job.

Perhaps you missed that Cuomo is now saying we need to end lockdowns. He isn’t (that) dumb. It was a calculated political move. He knew businesses and residents were fleeing. He knew he was bankrupting the city and state. But he didn’t dare agree with what Trump wanted because...politics. Now that the election is over, he can go back to trying to undo the mess he made in NY. Some of the movement out will be permanent. Others will come back, or someone else will replace those who left. People (even most who left in the last year) will still travel to NY to visit friends, family, and for business. Short term NYC prospects aren’t great. Medium and long term? I think leaving would be foolish. That said we do need to focus elsewhere as well, which I think we are starting to do with RDU and LAX. A few more would be nice as well.
