That would be a hit to the bottom line and management bonuses

Considering it’s a hometown airline, this will probably bite them.

Speaking of SY, how do they plan to grow with such low pay and only one base. I can only see them growing as announced if they open up DFW and raise their pay.

Looks like the ULCC transition is going to plan.
Step 1. Lay off a bunch of employees to save a few pennies
Step 2. **** off a bunch of passengers and their families/friends
Step 3. Get roasted by the media, Play dumb then try to do too little too late.

No, this was cheaper. The public has a short memory for this kind of thing.

This will change when a politician’s relative or major campaign donor is left on the tarmac, to their own design, of a banana republic.

No it won't. You remind me of those that said United was 'doomed' after the Dr Dao/dead bunny/dead dog/dead dog/dead dog incident(s). The public has Alzheimer's.
