The point made about operating cost was spot on.

They will eventually come crying to us about concessions.
The QOL that was given away, kiss it goodbye FOREVER.
You trust Spirit management with PBS?
Forget about pilot CONTROLLED parameters, after every violation, they will tell you to grieve it...
Just look at the increase of relief lines.
I too demand equitable pay, just NOT at any cost.
How about, profit sharing, disability, retirement, block or better, improved rigs, long call reserve, red eye override, decent travel benefits, DH on business class, etc.
Are we negotiating any of the above?
A huge thanks to the Negotiating Committee for all their hard work.
Please do not vote for a concessionary contract.
We gave up enough for the iPads already...
