I wouldn’t count on new hire classes continuing given the status of the Coronavirus and the market’s reaction to it.

I think the harm right now is more for the international flying, domestic flying seems to be doing ok. But it seems like almost daily some new city is being affected to the point of bookings dropping massively. First China, now Korea and it is looking like Milan will be next.

I said this in another thread and was attacked but the WuFlu could be this decades 9/11 when it comes to aviation. These sort of things just don't bounce back overnight.

I agree, once it is spreading in the US things will get pretty tough in the airline industry. The carriers with large retirement numbers may be able to absorb the potential reductions the best. Alaska has very limited retirement numbers and as a result things could get ugly for everyone, but junior folks in particular.

I think domestic only airlines are going to weather this a lot better than ones with a large international presence. Not saying it’ll be sunshine and rainbows but I don’t see this becoming a big deal for us.
