Is everyone that boards your flights a first time flyer? If not, where did they come from? You have too many captains on here saying to accept the status quo and accept Spirit for what it is. Get paid.
If you are so worried about what our management does. Why don't you take away all those EJets and CRJ's from the regionals before worrying about what our management does. You have a bigger mess to clean up. How many of those Delta passengers are riding on an RJ that's not flown by mainline Delta pilots? Fix that, then come talk about Spirit stealing your passengers.
