Does any airline have a plan? There are so many variables and unknowns, it's impossible to know what the economy and travel environment will look like next summer. You can make guesses, but you can't make an educated guess. Will there be a vaccine? If there is a vaccine will it be effective and available? Will the mortality rate rise or fall as the numbers of known cases of covid 19 explode in the United States? Will the Europeans allow US citizens into there countries? Will the virus mutate? What percentage of people will avoid flying until there's a vaccine? How many more bailouts will the tax payers allow?Nobody knows the answers to those questions.
