BB you are counting empty aircraft flying around
As an aside , do you actually believe that data regarding number of flights anyway ? Sounds V fishy , are you sure it isn't an excitable CEO blowing his horn
I would be counting paying RPT pax & if you look at the Bitre data , we might have got to 50% in May , unfortunately that will take a nosedive
A more accurate measure would to look at both RPT (nos) and also RPKs
It is a real shame not only for aviation - the hotel industry etc etc have been decimated . There must be 100s of thousands who have been put out of work
Everyone is gun-shy about travelling to an interstate capital that does hotel quarantine
Nobody wishes for redundancies anywhere , but if the international division is grounded for years & bust - you might think redundancies are a fair chance
Free country & all but an upside of 7.5 weeks of entitlements Vs a downside of redundancy & returning years later on a B scale - well that is what a free country is all about. Each to their own
