LOL. Obviously the takeaway is that Chris Wallace is a liberal.

And if he hadn't Trump would have declared 1721 furloughs "fake news"

Objection... relevance?

Overruled.
...as to relevance

Looked like the WWE to me, except the referee jumped in, as well.

If my deep study of Western history serves me well, I believe Vince McMahon start as a WWF referee.

lol. I was wrong. Obviously I didn’t take into account our MECs disfunction. I should have known better. Now we have two council updates slinging mud a each other. Can’t say I’m impressed.

After reading through the LAX chairs response to ATL, it seems their reason for voting no, was that congress will pass the cares 2 and this will all have been for nothing. Does anyone have any faith in congress at this point?

I’ve never had faith in Congress before this year, and I’ve seen nothing to change my opinion now ;)

Not necessarily. A vaccine won’t reduce deaths to zero and is likely to be largely ineffective. I would expect herd immunity by next summer though. A vaccine will provide a sentiment help like a sugar pill. Maybe our leaders will get rid of the masks shortly after, but I wouldn’t expect “what makes sense” to be how this plays out considering how things have gone. Either way, looking at the sentiment I see, I don’t see passenger levels close to 2019 levels until people can travel without the anxiety the mask creates. I still think they can rise to 50-70% until that point provided quarantine/testing restrictions are lifted.

Maybe, In fact, the existence of the vaccine, effective or not, will bring people back, to an extent. Surely, to a higher extent that we see them today.

Yes. He also said. The LOA didn't protect enough pilots for enough time.

I noticed that too. And pushing hard for a 30 day ratification because it's "policy". You know, things may be a little different this time. This LOA can be pulled down with 30 days notice by either side. I really don't see a lot of downside, and keeping 220 people employed while this plays out is a worthy goal.

There are no metrics to equate less flying to less furlough. How has “at discretion” worked so far? Think ULC will be available on NB fleets in heavy months?
