as far as the 2020 hiring, they planned for 64/month and so far they have hit or exceeded those numbers in every single month. April has 68 new hires scheduled. Subject to change at any time of course, but so far so good. I doubt it will stop but I also wouldn’t be surprised if they cut it in half for a short while. I think as long as this virus doesn’t lead to another recession, we might make it out fine. reserves are gonna be bored for a while though |

20+ resignations in January alone. We're going to need to hire 68/month to outpace attrition.

oil hasn't been 105 for over 5 years. have we just not been successful over the past 5 years somehow? seems far fetched.

My buddy at Frontier says their flights are pretty darn full.
I think the ULCC/LCC model is more immune to this. It is hard to make money when you fly 777/787's to Asia and Europe, and those PAX board via DFW and ORD, fed by 737/A320s. the Big-3 model depends on the business traveler for revenue. Corporate America, Federal Government, and others are cancelling meetings and conferences, and embracing web conferencing/etc. ULCC/LCC are possibly better able to endure this storm. My opinion |

My opinion The problem isn’t flight loads now. It’s the demand in the upcoming months that has fallen off a cliff. No airline will be immune. |
