On reserve yes, you will probably spend more days at a crash pad or hotel (I always went with a cheap $40 hotel and hoped I got called out and didnt have to keep paying for a room) depending on the reserve line you get plan on only being home 12-15 days of the month.
In my honest opinion commuting sucks. I would try to life in base. However LAX-LAS doesn’t seem that bad...my commute was further.
But things are exciting at Spirit, we are growing fast and there is a huge announcement they are making on Facebook on Monday.
Huge announcement on Monday? Hmmmmmmmmm. The last “big” announcement was underwhelming about Wi-Fi. Would love a big aircraft order to facilitate growth (and accelerate upgrade opportunities)...
