I don't doubt that some airlines will survive and eventually regain some semblance of health. The problem is that nearly all managements (and especially ours) will use this situation to cynically advance their long held desire to strip away the pay and conditions that we currently operate under. The airline will probably survive (in fact, they will probably have less competition to worry about), but the employees will certainly pay the price. It will be interesting to hear what management proposes to the AOA this week. I am certain it will be difficult to accept and deal with. I seriously doubt we will be going back to the way things were.
