They were showing us 2019 numbers the whole time. Now that it's 2021 they're showing us the 2019 numbers PLUS the 2020 numbers. It just hadn't tanked yet in January 2020.

Looks like March 9-10 is when the drop off happened.

Another advantage to the new format - we can more easily see days in the past that had anomalies such as weather related cx flights in 2020. At least through March 1st anyway.

I’ve been leaning towards optimism in terms of our industry’s recovery, but I think I’m coming to the realistic conclusion that we have a very long, long way to go. I don’t see these numbers coming up significantly for quite some time. The vaccine rollout seems clumsy at best. I’m not even sure how many people will actually take it. And then we have 50 state governments doing their own thing, not to mention all the international restrictions. Now I’m starting to see this taking years. I really, really hope I’m wrong.

Owning up to this and preparing individualized backup plans should be the primary goal of concerend folks in this industry. To do otherwise, well...may just end up saying howdy to each other in a new career down the road.

I think the very idea of using clinical tests for screening is ludicrous and shows that hysteria has overtaken science.

This ignorance is more consistent with 18th century France:

or the cargo cults of the South Pacific post WWII.

I’m not sure which would offend me more, if the people mandating this KNOW it can’t work and are simply lying to us, or if they are actually ignorant enough to believe it WILL work.

Either way, their credibility is striving daily for new lows.
