coodrough568 is right. The dooms day clock has ticked another minute closer to midnight over the course of the last month.

Buckle up and settle in where you’re at because there’s likely going to be no positive trends for airlines until HOPEFULLY fall 2021. And that’s if the big three don’t declare in the spring/summer. If one declares, they all will. No way two legacies are going to let one restructure and operate cheaper than them.

the number to look at is the 70% of where we were last year and not the nationwide TSA numbers, but the point is the same every down turn in this industry lasts at least three years. So get comfy everyone.

ERJ transitions will happen again, just curious if skywest mainline really is better than, say, flying the 700 in DFW from my view point.

[QUOTE=MaxThrust1;3166782]I agree that it is a very fluid situation that requires a month to month basis. It was a little disheartening to see that they retracted their statement about bringing the new guys back. Fingers crossed that we see them on property soon
