Definitely. You are absolutely correct. And those furloughed fared very poorly in the ensuing merger SLI s.
Bankruptcy contract at AA to this day.

A 5 year look, far from "devastated" as you call it. Temporary setback or adjustment. This too, shall pass .

This oil price war is likely going to lead to debt losing its BBB rating, increasing corporate interest rates and the inability of corporation to service their debt. This is what we need to be worried about.”

Flare in the fall. IF people think of others and self quarantine it can be mitigated but they don’t and they won’t.

Yep, Putin is betting the oil price war will be enough to tip the scale.
He's effectively out spending us with his oil resources, while we have acquired major debt as an economy, because interest rates were low.
Seems like what happened to the Soviet Union.
The Saudis were trying to make reasonable adjustments, and he obviously has another agenda.

American has canceled six new hire flight attendant classes and plans to push out pilot hiring. “We are doing all this with an eye towards 2021,” he said. “We need to be ready when demand returns.”

So new hires are going to get "push out" of the training center?

"Push out" pilot hiring is pretty vague. Give future classes later dates? Stop classes? Smaller classes?
