Ooof…this thing just keeps from bad to worse for all commercial aviation in Australia and many of our jobs too if this continues regardless of how deep pockets may have been pre-covid.
None of our airlines will likely be immune from some more severe down sizing to stay alive so long as international travel is dead indefinitely, borders domestically close at a moments notice and punters decide its not worth leaving their state at the risk of ending up on a lockdown or even barred from getting home/to their holiday all together.
I can only speak directly for my neighbours and family, none of them plan to fly anywhere til this stuff is firmly under control and I’m pretty sure that sentiment is only growing from the loads some of my mates (who are thankfully working) have been taking lately.
