There is much more to being a ULCC than labor. Aircraft utilization for one and real estate for two. How the other work groups get paid is up to them. We negotiate for ourselves. Revenue will increase with an industry standard pilot contract and cost associated with IROPs will go down.

Feng,

Give me one good reason why you are here managing down our expectations and telling us who our "peers" are and how you think an airline cost structure works? As a pilot that isn't benificial to you in any way whether you work at spirit or not. If you work at a lobor busting law firm like ford and Harrison or are a member of spirit management I can see your motivation. You seemed to have clearly picked a side and I can tell you it's the wrong one.

And btw I am counting on full retro so it's safe to say it's more than one of us. Delta got it. Hawaiian got it. It's industry standard.
