Don’t get me wrong, I wish we’d rebrand as much as the next guy, but it just seems so unlikely when people only think with their wallets. This current outrage will just become another forgotten memory or a “Maybe I’ll give them one more chance since it’s so cheap” type situation I think.
No $hit. Of course it will be. Look Im not a kook-aid drinker, but I’ll be honest with you. I’ve been here just shy of 3 years. The only time I’ve seen a really really big $hit storm was Easter 2019. Say what you want, but that legit was weather. I finishing new hire training and had a hell of a time getting home for the holiday on various legacy carriers.
Bottom line is 97% of people are completely full of it. It’s internet tough talk. “F airline XYZ. Never flying these Dbags ever again I tell you!” 🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱
Airline meltdowns are a revolving door. We all get our 15 mins and it closes. Our door is going to be open again (like every single airline at some point).
Now people may think I’m sympathetic. I’m in NO WAY CONDONING this. This is, obviously, NOT GOOD, but I’m also not stupid. The fact that we operate 600-700 flights a day (without issue) is simply insane to me. I mean truly. The logistics of it all? It really really is mindblowing.
TLDR - Spirit is going nowhere despite an unfortunate meltdown that happens to, literally, 100% of Every legacy and major carrier in the US. And no I’m not condoning it.
