Hopefully international travel won't be too far behind, but that is going to largely depend on whatever limiting policies remain in specific countries.
Corporate travel, however, is going to take a hit until we have an effective vaccine. Fortunately that doesn't affect us here at Spirit, but the legacies are going to be hurting for awhile. Facebook just announced no more large events thru June 2021. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/04/16/zuck...june-2021.html For the foreseeable future, I think this is going to become the new normal for corporate America. The social justice warriors will create some kind of social responsibility campaign and pressure large companies to limit travel and large gatherings which are not absolutely required. Large companies will have a gun held to their head and be forced to either participate or face mass amounts of public scrutiny and boycotts, much like we see with the alphabet people every June and the inundation of pink every October. I don't think it will be permanent but it will likely prevail in the interim until we get a vaccine. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.for...nonavirus/amp/ “Business travel will recover more quickly than leisure travel but at a permanently lower level.” |

You all took it. Welcome to the real world. No special treatment. Maybe Spirit won’t jump on over saturated routes and ruin the market in the future. It’s what happens when you overlap routes that are already over saturated.

“Business travel will recover more quickly than leisure travel but at a permanently lower level.” the beach etc., most businesses will take longer imo. Sure some will come back but i expect that to be very low. |

look, if anybody has a crystal ball as to what travel will come back first, or if it comes back quickly (it better start to come back before Oct-1), etc. etc needs to quit their airline job and become a hedge fund manager where obviously your skills will be better used.
this includes journalists and free lancers on Seeking Alpha who get paid $10 for some article they wrote. |

I also think that an initial uptick in business travel when things start improving will boost the confidence in leisure travelers that it’s safe to travel again and jumpstart the leisure market. |
