If you've been hired and disclosed in the interview, Spirit already decided that your bust could be overlooked. The background check is FBI stuff ('I omitted a stint in jail' type of thing), not FAA busts. Have you flown down to FLL to do the background check and ID photo visit? If so, just tell them then. If not, send an e-mail, better safe than sorry.

As for the 'cut and paste' story - I'd leave that out. Spirit is the airline that you've always wanted to work for, so why would you have apps in at other places?

I'm NOT in HR, just regular line scum. Welcome aboard!

For the guys starting class. New vacancy bid just came out and its all for LAS. There are 4 captain and 10 FO slots. The notes say this is to cover new hire classes of 12/18, 12/26 and 1/02. This bid closes on Jan. 6th and is effective for March. I think its safe to assume there will be another bid sometime in January as long as we keep the classes going.

Still waiting to see what the lines look like.

Curious as to whether they have humanized the interview process any since just before the furlough? I interviewed with 9 others, we were each told that we were only after the job so we could get a 319 type and then go to CAL. The intern told me that I was incorrect on my memory item of an airplane I'd been flying for 4 years. Then the union rep guy accused me of planning on leaving for CAL because I lived 15 minutes from Newark, I actually lived 2.5 hours from Newark. It was the most hostile interview I've ever been to and left thinking that I didn't want the job. It worked out because they hired 1 out of 10 that day. Their layoffs began a few months later, so thank you for rejecting me! I'm in a good spot now it's all good. Anyone else have that kind of experience?

Any intel on how often Spirit will be conducting interviews and holding new hire classes in the next few months?
