Fewer airport ‘customers’ is the key to this. Most all airports in the US were reporting a 50-to-60 percent decrease over the first half of 2020. I don’t think it improved at all for remainder of the year. I’d expect the trend to mostly stay around for bulk of 2021.
You make an excellent point. I often see the rules, and I am seeing it more and more, talking about how nice it will be we can get back to normal and they can travel, go to a concert, etc.
What these liberals fail to realize is that they have given the government in support of the government taking unconstitutional amounts of power over our daily lives and the government isn’t really interested in giving it back quickly. If they think they’re going to see a concert or have a normal life in 2021, They are in for a rude awakening. With the Democrats constantly moving goal posts, I don’t see many promoters or event venues attempting to spend what little money they have left to pull off a concert and say fall of 2021 going to have the government step in and say no sorry you got a wait two more months. I suspect many venues will refuse to host major events until restrictions are completely lifted.
True. I’m actually surprised that the decrease was only 50 to 60%. A lot of businesses I know have discovered the joys of Microsoft Teams (and the massive, massive savings in real-estate, travel expenses etc.)

On my last flight in August, at least half the terminal vendors’ stores and stands were closed. It was like getting off the last flight at 11 pm, but at 3 pm.
