Envoy 2020
#522
I don't see any signs of flying picking up in the schedule during June. Maybe Envoy or AA (but I repeat myself) bean counters figure it is cheaper to keep these aircraft active and sitting at gates at outstations instead of sitting on a closed runway. Right now, they are flying a few aircraft for 4 legs a day. If they pull aircraft out of storage, they can fly the same number of flights, just divide the legs over more airplanes. Fly twice as many aircraft 2 legs a day, or 4 times as many aircraft once a day. Who knows, maybe we will start doing tail swaps on our long sits at outstations. Sounds like fun doing first flight of the day checks on every flight.

The International Air Transport Association, or IATA, says global traffic will still be about 10 per cent below original estimates in 2025.
The IATA doesn't see travel recovering to last year's levels until 2023, but says factors that drove a decades-long boom in air travel ultimately drive up demand.

If we could find a 2025 projection, from 2016 it will probably be much more consertive than a 2025 projection ran in November 2019.
Right when Richard Anderson retired from Delta he was targeting 1% growth, and the majors got sued for coining the term "capacity discipline".
Southwest and United decide 3-5% YOY was more attractive, then the models baked it in.
