When Covid problem started, i saw Jetblue had R/T flights for $61! But flight didn't fly, cancelled. They realized PRICE wasn't convincing leisure travelers to fly so why drop price? Now no sales and less options so surprised at low sales?

When airline cancels 6 flights due to 'not enough people' THEN has one flight after 5 days and flight is packed, is that an uptick? 'Better'?

Delta for the rebound....

It will never go back to normal, it’s fundamentally changed.

Normal? What is normal when the FED manipulates the markets like never before in the history?
