June is the busiest schedule since March of 2018.

I feel for you. I don't get the impression that they have any idea. They're flying by the seat of their pants with regard to training capacity. Plus I'm betting they want to wait and what Sept and Oct are looking like - if any business travel starts to make a comeback.

Take a look at the market frequency report that Network Planning has out on SWALIFE and they are planning for a significant ramp up in frequency in September.

Purely non-scientific I know but I’m seeing the return of business men in suits and sport coats on our planes.

The ones I’ve talked to have agreed with my sentiment that business travel will be making a comeback.
