Just watch 2nd Quarter of 2020 being the most profitable in their history.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Big time. Oil prices at lowest plus 90% of workforce on leave, while they basically have all the wide body jets working full time

That's what accountants get paid for. They'll find a way to show the right set of numbers that the moment requires.

Big time. Oil prices at lowest plus 90% of workforce on leave, while they basically have all the wide body jets working full time

The one thing that they have going against them making a real profit is that they're likely operating 7 days a week as a cargo airline. ☹️

Well, sadly, that is probably true. My point was that while using human logic they might be operating in the most profitable way, there's divine logic that says that keeping Shabbos is important, so somehow it might not work out for them.
