Airlines will take years to achieve what will be seen in the future as the glory days of 2019.

Actually over half has already disappeared. So, no massive change on one day. But, the number of flights we have had in the past will not return for quite some time - unless a vaccine is found, and available quickly and cheaply.

RNO-LAX, RNO-SAN just $49, in June no less; it has been a while since I saw those deals. Most "sales" lately were at $79+.
What isn't going to return any time soon is business travel. Heck, my employer is so concerned about any air travel that if you do any air travel (whether for work or pleasure) you must not enter any company facility for a week after returning from the trip. Pretty much says do not get in a plane, if you work here.

Since they ran a more generous $49 sale than usual, they attracted more bookings. At least they are doing their part to try to get people flying.
