Without an unprecedented (as in, never before happened in history) 3 government bailouts the entire industry would be a shadow of what it was in 2019. All 3 legacies would have been in bankruptcy and AA was a very likely candidate for liquidation. You don’t have to believe me, but the numbers m/history don’t lie. We’re all more fortunate than we probably realize to even be having this discussion right now.
And we’re not out of the woods yet. This whole Covid thing isn’t over. We’ve had some reprieve over the summer, but I have a feeling the government / CDC are going to throw some curve balls in the coming weeks/months.

So personally I'd expect mandatory vaccinations before any kind of lock downs again. That being said I have a feeling the mask mandate for airports is going to be extended again unfortunately.

At this point the FDA should be giving the vaccines full authorization in the next week or so, and once that's done it'll be much better optics for more places to require vaccinations without the emergency use authorization making it look bad.

I wouldn’t be so certain. The big 4 are flush with cash now. AA alone reported something like $21B in liquidity? They’re all having a somewhat profitable quarter. I’m not so sure there would be another bailout as things are already inherently different than they were just a year ago.

Still plenty of us not getting calls that are qualified. At least qualified compared to other new hires.
