They get to keep our 43% pay raises for themselves. (Minus the bonus, which makes it about, roughly, approximately, plus or minus, 2 years pay we lose.) That's about 6 figures for nearly every pilot who's been here since early openers.)
Oh, and expect nothing to change in 5 years when we do this all again.
Good news and bad news for you...
Good news is there are enough level headed pilots at Spirit to vote this thing in, keeping you from making a horrible decision by sailing into the unknown without the proper industry protections one needs in this career. So thats the good thing, you get LTD, DC, huge raise, substantial scope improvements, etc...
Bad News is you will never be happy at Spirit because you are simply just unrealistic.
