Hope for the best, Plan for the worst.
Applying elsewhere is always a good idea, not just for those at Spirit (though especially good now).
To apply costs you nothing and does not require you to make any decision that will affect anything else in your life.
If you are offered an interview it only costs you a day to go and does not require you to make a decision that will affect anything else in your life.
If you are offered the job, then and only then do you have to actually make a decision that will affect anything else in your life.
If that offer is from UA/DL/AA that decision is now a complete no brainer for those a Spirit, but it is also a no-brainer for a great many airlines (all regionals).
Whether at Spirit or elsewhere, to not send out an app is beyond foolish!
