This would only apply if LH decides to leave the aircraft parked instead of reutilizing freed capacity somewhere else. And I don't think that reflects reality
OK has been cutting routes for quite some time now, not leaving aircraft parked, thinking it can make more money elsewhere, and yet they are far from being profitable today
