It sounds like Thanksgiving bookings are strong across the board. Being close to the holiday, I think loads are slowing, slightly, since most folks know they are going to be seeing folks soon enough in a few weeks.

I wouldnt be surprised to see the same trend early Dec as well.

Domestic carriers seem to be seeing bookings pick up for the holidays significantly, although it seems to be more last-minute reservations. Yes, AA had to canx a bunch because they over-estimated the recovery.

Better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick though. We are still in the part of the year where historically a lot of the traffic was business related. I don’t think the vast majority of that is coming back any time soon and a non-trivial minority of it may not come back ever. Like increasingly empty commercial office space in the big cities, the internet is changing things...

I have no doubt that the current lull has been affected by post-election uncertainty. I’m still sticking with my prediction that we hit 1.5 mil sometime during the Thanksgiving holiday and a steady 1.5 mil by next spring. I hope the change in presidency doesn’t affect the vaccine development. We were supposed to see that hit the market by years end.

I'm more worried about continuous lockdown. Very easy to put Cuba style restrictions on air travel (please state reason for travel so we can verify it's essential).

I think you are going to see increasing legal pushback to travel restrictions. As in, “I have a right to remain silent, the onus is on you to prove - without any assistance from me - that the trip is nonessential.”

Police departments have far more urgent needs than enforcing quarantines that have not even been shown to work and are constitutionally suspect if people passively resist them. Which they ultimately will.

Control-F search the article. the year 2019 is not even in the article.

This however, is

According to global travel data provider OAG, American and United airlines reported a 75 percent dip in bookings for November, while Delta Air Lines said sales were down 12 percent during one of the busiest travel periods each year.
If 2019 is what you interpreted, fine. However 2019 was not in the article itself.

regarding bookings, maybe folks are waiting until last minute and we see these improve.

They're not claiming a 75% drop in bookings from last month

What do you think they're comparing it to? 2015?
