It obviously worked (relatively speaking). I saw AA and others in the news that week. Within a day or 2 most every trip (primarily those Jan 1 and beyond) were no longer in OT.
I get it’s easy to claim nothing changes, but we 100% could have easily had another massive meltdown again, but instead of we took this approach and we didn’t. 🤷🏻♂️
I got $75 for working Christmas Eve and Day. No 200%…. Yeah, fair….
Maybe your Allegiant foggles haven’t uncleared themselves to the reality of the industry, but Spirit is NOT the end all and be all. Retirement is. My vote didn’t matter but I’m regretting it now….
