The only airline who can possibly grow from this, is Ryanair. £5.99 to Alicante will usually sway people’s opinions after being locked like a rat for months.
Many hate the thought of Ryanair. Yet, somehow I believe in the near future I’m going to have an ex BA/VA for company in the flight deck.
I just don’t see anyone ordering airplanes this year, other than Ryanair.. 2001 springs to mind. With Boeing cutting jobs, orders being cancelled I’m sure there’s a discussion to be had. London Gatwick would beg Ryanair to come back at this rate with a base.
I agree with the previous two posts, I can see Lauda having lay offs, possibly a few smaller base closures. The obvious way to cut the pay, is to remove the productivity bonus.
Survey tonight on Newsnight suggested that 62% of the UK population feel uncomfortable about using public transportation. If peeps are nervy about a 10 min bus ride extrapolate that out to a 4 hr run to TFS in a sardine can. The only way this will play out is a massive contraction of the industry to 1970's levels and a recovery after a vaccine is developed.
