Well, Ted told Spirit shareholders that we are hiring enough to offset attrition. 2 minutes later he said that they don't have enough crew members to fly aircraft to the utilization that they would like. Spirit isn't about to sign any form of a record breaking deal, especially if it was beyond current JB rates.

I think a lot of airline management is about to wait and see what the economy does, and I'd be very surprised if any airline signs a new contract by the end of the year.
