Operator: Thank you. One moment, please. Our next question comes from the line of Stephen Trent of Citi. Mr. Trent, your line is open.
Stephen Trent : Good afternoon, gentlemen and thanks very much for taking my question. Just one or two for me. So the first one is on, definitely appreciate what you guys have mentioned about whether, did you see sort of any episodes in July where – let’s say, extreme heat in places like Vegas. You know, maybe let you don’t bump some daytime capacity into the evening for example? Or it’s kind of we are primarily talking about thunderstorms were the main headache?
Barry Biffle: The biggest challenge is simply that we are seeing more ground delay programs and we’re seeing them put on much sooner and for much longer duration than we’ve seen in the past. I mean, we’ve seen upwards of five to ten times the amount of ground delay program minutes that we’ve seen in the system versus years past. So that’s the big challenge. As far as heat goes, yes, I’ve seen some of those and I know there was a plane stuck – with another carrier that was stuck in the area hot. The only specific thing that we’ve had is there have been the normal challenges with more tires that are damaged as a result of heat. And in particular, we did have one day where the temperatures were so high in Las Vegas that it caused temperature warnings to cause the fuel in the aircraft to exceed a temperature warning, which actually had it made cancel flights.
We actually have been tankering fuel now in there to mitigate this. But we’ve had – I think it’s probably less than a dozen or two just related specifically to heat. Everything is mainly aircraft control ground delay programs.
Stephen Trent : Okay. No that’s great. I definitely appreciate that. And thank you, Barry and one other quick thing, I appreciate what you’ve mentioned about long-haul demand and what have you. When we think about Florida, over the last kind of two to three years for a lot of the time that was kind of the only place that was open are you seeing any specific sort of nuances in demand trend aside from more people flying in long haul? You hearing one or two organizations on a boycott the state, et cetera, et cetera. But I’m not sure if you’re seeing anything like that in your data. Thank you.
Barry Biffle: No, we have not seen anything quite like that. There is some theories around temperature like, when it’s really hot, you don’t necessarily want to go to Phoenix right now and some other places in and it doesn’t help when those destinations are actually in the news for being very, very hot. And when you talk to certain hotels, I think they have actually experienced it. But in our data, we haven’t really seen anything in particular that points to a state or a specific destination outperforming or underperforming. In fact, I think if you go back, the COVID recovery in the pent-up demand was very uneven, really benefited the Florida as you mentioned it benefited, even some of the kind of secondary destinations in their off seasons.
And then, it’s taken a little longer for the coasts of the New York’s the California’s to come back. But in our business, we now see out California and bounce back as an example. And so, we see a pretty even recovery forming this big shift to go to Europe this summer and into the fall is look at, it takes money. I mean, if there’s so many consumer dollars, when we look at just our customers, we surveyed our customers, not the whole traveling public. And when we lose 5% of our people to go to Europe, that’s a lot of customers. And so, and they’re spending a lot of money to go on those trips. So that is a pretty big dent. But we think that it will normalize just like we saw huge spikes to Florida and other places when the pent-up demand hit. I think that we’re going to see this moderate.
