For current Spirit gents/ladies:
1) What is DOH of current most junior Captain in the system? Do you folks expect upgrade time to increase significantly IF CBA passes?
2) Does the company expect that much of significant scheduling efficiencies, read less bodies, that the Union had to insert no downgrade/furlough language?
Thank you kindly for any info provided.
I think question 2 is a safe assumption for a short amount of time. I would expect at least a reduction of required crews by 20%. Currently we sit at 16 crews per aircraft (I think).
