Whatever scenario anyone of us imagines, there are three possible outcomes:
1. The reality will be better than we imagine
2. The reality will be worse than we imagine
3. The reality will be just as we imagine
I've read through a significant number of different scenarios. Anything ranging from things going back to normal by some time next year and traffic reaching and exceeding 2019 levels in no more than 2-3 years to things being so wildly screwed 3 years from now that no private airline will exist and the only flights out there will be operated by state-owned carriers to maintain essential connectivity and will cost an arm and a leg. My personal opinion, based on this? We shall wait and see. Whatever prophecy we make now, it may become completely invalid by next week.
