It is worth noting that none of the airlines got enough money to cover all of payroll, about 72-75%. The terms allow them to reduce hours. So, what’s the financially prudent thing to do?

Delta was the leader on this, so I’m not sure why United is getting the letter from the Senator of state where there’s not a ton of United mainline service...

Would be smart to retrench to DEN, SFO, EWR, ORD and maybe keep IAD with government travel. LAX is too competitive for UA and UA does not need Latin America they have always been weak there and can’t be everywhere. Also, IAH is way too far South for domestic and is an oil city. Will be sad to see UA leave LAX as a hub. They were always the airline I flew to LA. Got to go to Australia, HKG, Hawaii, Guatemala, NRT all on UA from LAX. I don’t believe for a second AA won’t be leaving hubs either. There just are not enough people going to travel and business is moving to work from home model. They will will not need to fly. If things got really bad I could see ORD, SFO, EWR. Hope to fly the friendly skies again soon!!
