It seems that this isn’t what management sees though and other than those that flow in the next year or two, those that have some dings on record or don’t have a degree, there isn’t much incentive to stay.
For the record I have nothing but respect for those that stuck it out with Envoy all these years and absolutely feel they have earned their respective flow dates. I don’t think I could have tolerated all of the **** they did for so many years.
Someone should do a comparison of lifetime earnings at spirit vs waiting 6 years for flow to American. I'd bet more money is to be had at Spirit.
