So how many times are you gonna start the same stupid thread...

Give it a break. Find something better to do. I could link you to a couple threads if you need something to do. I think you started one just like it.

JC will soon mention how vital it is to reduce cost wherever possible, then they will talk furlough then, they will reduce something in the way of capacity. Then they will blame the losses on the greedy pilots for not giving up enough pay. Then they will furlough a few pilots whereby the pilots will concess something, then JC will give himself a bonus.

why are you singling out Spirit? If oil stays above $130 through the summer, there will be 30+ airlines out of business. Who is gonna be the first idiot to say im wrong about that one....

Hi!

Oil will probably go up and be quite a bit over $130/barrel for the summer, and a few years from now we will look back fondly on the cheap price of oil and gasoline back in '08.

So, when this happens, ALL the airlines will go out of business?? I don't think so.
