The coronavirus has already sent stock markets into convulsions, rattled supply chains and forced companies to dust off emergency response plans. Stocks plunged again on Thursday, with the S&P 500 falling more than 3 percent. But the abrupt decline in global air travel suggests that the economic impacts of the outbreak may be entering a more disruptive phase.
It has been almost 20 years since the aviation industry faced such an existential threat. After the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, global air travel plummeted, and it took years for airlines to fully recover. Today there are worries that the coronavirus could have a similarly disastrous impact.

I personally choose to be more optimistic, but the unfortunate reality is that the history doesn’t lie. What you’re saying could be a complete right-wing conspiracy type theory or it could be what happens. But you put it best: Plan for the long term.

Always helps to plan for the worst and not need it than be caught off guard when the worst happens

The events of today and yesterday are a perfect example. Hopefully we've forgotten all about this by this time next year.

I wonder what that “Drop this pairing” button does in sked+...?
It has never worked in the past but maybe it’ll work next month.

Ha ha. Not a hope. Has anyone factored in how many pilots are about to get sick, some seriously??
If projections are right, almost half the pollution is likely to get hit. Including, shock, pilots...who are out with the masses. I’d hazard to say
more than 50% will get it

Do you ever say something positive? Apart from all the "facts" you love and all the drama, justified or not. Have you ever tried been positive to compensate a little bit. You should try.

I've got 3 hours of user time banked. Should be enough to cover me for corona virus right?
