You mentioned that you'd "come back" to Spirit. So you've already been there, got an A320 type rating and Part 121 training on your resume? I don't think there's any resume 'bump' points for getting more A320 FO time. If you already have 1000 hrs TPIC in your log book you're more flexible on your job decisions. The next resume bump is Part 121 PIC. I'd guess that's a long way off at Spirit. If you're relatively young, and still chasing the big 121 airlines, I'd map out my resume progression at your current job, taking the Spirit recall, and getting a regional FO job that has a fairly quick (2-3 yrs? Is that still happening??) upgrade. Make realistic assumptions for 2, 3, 4, and 5 years in the future. See if prefer one future resume over the other options. Tough to figure out the bouncing ball. Good luck.
