It's a spitball guess at this point in time, but I don't see business travel reaching pre-Covid levels for a couple years. I do think we'll see at least somewhere in the ballpark of 75% of it return within the first 3-6 months of really getting a handle on the spread. Here's to staying positive in a pretty gloomy situation.
