Do expect more bad news and furloughs through '09, though.

Allow me to correct myself; a lot of us will lose our jobs in the next few months. If you think this statement is harsh, you need a reality check. With all the job losses in the USA and globally, less people will have the resources to travel. With a lot of companies downsizing in this economy, the number of business travelers will decline as will. This all equates to less flying and reduced capacities.
