If the coronavirus and border lockdowns continue then the industry will be a very different place for a fair few years. Airlines with deep pockets will ride the wave, but others will fail. Norwegian is perhaps one of the weaker links based on recent press. Who is to join them? We don't know. If you continue down your training journey I wish you the best of luck with it. It's a hard but rewarding process and I'd like to hope for both your own sake and my own that the industry is still a float in a healthy fashion by the year 2020 as you say.
Thanks for your insights. I truly hope things get better. I'm so sorry for those newly graduated pilots right now... must be a devastating blow... specially for those that have no backup profession.
Hang in there guys.
Can't imagine what it's like to finish with so much hope and suddenly... this crap going on.
