idsant - the airline staff boards seem to indicate the % job loss among desk jockeys and management will be HIGHER than FA and pilots actually. Pain all around it seems.

Also hope Basenji is not affected - fingers crossed. And Basenji - can you maybe drop a slight further hint about routes possibly affected? My sister has Christmas South Pacific tickets booked for family via a travel agent, but not paid for right now. If they may pull those routes versus BKK or SIN etc, and she knew it was possible, it might be worth her quietly ticketing, and then there might be re-protection possible via SQ or NZ on the issued tickets?

Or by "south" maybe I am wrong-guessing here - is the primary language of the maybe to go destinations Spanish or English?
