Most logical post on the subject so far.
This schedule flexibility that everyone cheers about is subject to change in the future. When Spirit slows the growth and settles into its size, you can bet they will lean the operation and it will more in line with most other airline where dropping down will be very difficult unless you are in the top 10% for your seat. The 75% green grid will only protect those at the top, as seen last summer, ect.
I’m not a doom and gooom guy, this is just the reality. Saying an American buyout would be bad for the pilot group is an emotional reaction.
