Most of our bookings aren’t made until 1-2 weeks out. We will know more later in the month. It sounds like some people are canceling, but wtf knows what will happen. For every person that does there could be someone taking their place buying a ticket.

Were you reading the same email as everyone else? Seems like you didn’t pick up on the tone

As long as I keep seeing consistent 130+ numbers I’m not concerned.

130 is great but the missing piece is ticket price. That is not an opinion piece either, strait from Ted

If you’re not concerned it’s not because you’re seeing 130+ (of a smaller airline btw), it’s because your seniority number is <2000.

Whether you’re concerned or not has no influence on the outcome on October 1st.
VIL’s going to anyone who bid it for August should be your clue as to what is on the horizon.
At 55,000 plus new cases a day this thing is far from over.
July schedules were built with an eye towards optimism when the curve was flattening. Conditions since the building of those schedules have changed.
500 furloughs are not out of the realm of possibility.
Todays email sounded like a warning. Be prepared.
