I think EK are committed to the aircraft & are probably able to play the long game 'economically' better than most carriers. This crisis will pass but the recovery will take years. It'll be a very different landscape on the other side.
I wonder how many 'legacy' carriers will survive.
I wonder the same thing too. On one hand there will be some carriers that go bust, on the other that will mean more demand for those that do survive. I wonder if this will expedite Project Sunrise and A350 flying in Qantas.
