Uh not necessarily, no. I mean, what one thing that's worth keeping um uh in mind is the way this crisis has impacted us. Uh you know, one other phenomenon in airlines, which when I say it will sound obvious, but is an important factor is we sell tickets up to a year ahead of when you actually fly. Yeah. Um, and so a lot of the tickets we've sold are well before the crisis. Uh and but we buy fuel on the day, if you will. Um, and so the crisis impacts us even more because we're now flying flights that were priced and sold well before the crisis started. I think you're losing money on. And and we honor those uh prices, of course. Um so when fuel prices start to settle, it'll take us a longer period of time to recover some of those cost shocks that we've had to bear.
