But probably still a long way better than having no flights whatsoever for 2 years. This solution was a wise one in terms of training and readiness for expanding the schedule as soon as the circumstances allow to do this on a cash-positive basis. They will have current pilots who haven't had any major gaps in flying and there won't be any bottlenecks in the training system, like I envision for some other companies.
