Where/When did Ed say "pandemic contract"?

On last weeks townhall. Something along the lines of our current contract being great and that it’s saved them a lot of money, but it’s not a “pandemic contract.”

Does not appear to be, "we will be a 20-25% airline for the next 2-3 years and then maybe be in a position to grow after that". "I'm encouraged by the science but it's going to take a long time to roll that out on a mass scale".

Wow.

So we are or are not going to shrink? Is that 25% smaller today, then build back up? Or shrink to 25% smaller over the next 2-3 years?

Someone switched my coffee with decaf today. Sorry for the slow uptake.

Excellent question. There seems to be an internal and an external message, not sure what to believe. I took the comment that we will function at 20-25% of pre-pandemic levels over the next 2-3 years and then crawl out of our shell. Maybe (he used that word). I may be wrong, usually am but it seemed like a pretty direct message.

We have to look positive publicly but more realistic internally so the worker bees aren’t blindsided by potential pain still to come. I hate to say it but that’s my feeling about the mix messages.
