To suggest that some of us are seeing this whole situation as an opportunity for “fast tracking command” is ludicrous.
Agreed. Doesn’t make sense as there will be no Commands for fast tracking. We are entering a Depression. Just think about it for a minute - Delta is losing $60m per day, United $100m per day. The Orange Man has agreed to a $25b bailout yet United said it will still go to the wall. Bringing it back to Australia, a paltry $719m is on offer. Peanuts, and not enough. VA is gone. If this situation were to go on for another 6 months QF will be in the same position. Businesses, travellers, holiday makers, tourism and market confidence will not return the day that the announcement ‘COVID free’ is made. Nobody will have any money. We are in for years of pain....
