I think all the questions above cost a lotttt of money. Still baffled by the big offer by JetBlue. Gutsy move. Other than expecting to get shafted on seniority integration I am very curious of what happens with JetBlue in the next 10 years.
I think Spirit already has a healthy chunk of their fleet already wifi equipped. I believe it’s the same company Jetblue uses, Thales. Could be wrong.
