I posted this in the DL fleet thread, but you can tell based on DL's fleet plan through 2022, they are planning on international to have a much longer recovery. Effectively they are going to be 30 widebodies less than where they were in 2019 through 2022. Upwards of 50-60 less than pre-COVID plans ...

I don’t see any substantial Asia network rebuilding in 2021 for anyone. That traffic is going to take a really long time. My uneducated guess based on current trends is maybe Summer 2022.

My suspicion is that AA is building PHX because unlike their northern hubs, they have fewer COVID restrictions giving the local market a boost. Additionally, traffic has stayed higher in WN "hub" markets as they didn't cut schedule as much in the beginning. Interesting change of fortune fo...

It's interesting they haven't moved to collapse JFK.
