Having been in a few conversations with general people, the consensus is that no one is planning a summer holiday and most have cancelled or about to cancel booked holidays. It comes to my mind that airlines who loaded with high holiday travellers look to be hit the hardest. Thoughts are focusing on Jet2. We all know they have taken in a number of Airbus leases for this summer, not a good thing to be be doing right now. Expected virus issue is at least 3 months with a peak in that time frame. Actions and words from Government are for delaying the virus, great for health but uncertainty for economics and aviation isn't what our industry wants. I figure the most robust airlines will face major problems, can't help to think that MOL isn't as worried as other CEOs. In his interview he just reiterated no we will not refund, its hard luck if you book a flight with us and don't travel for whatever reason, we have your money and that's that. It works for him. Tin hats wont protect as they used to, that attitude isn't going to work nowadays.
Thoughts go out to all at Flybe people, such a shame they caught in this mess.
