Default Indigo buys F9....

Tears flowing at IBT 357.......the split is coming, I hope the RAH folks get a deal from BB. Seems all you mojo got spent on a Moffat scheme to get to the Airbus for ex Midwest guys and ZERO progress on Section 6. Do these guys get elected or is it like the Politburo???? Hate to say we told ya so......get involved....good luck

What happens to the integrated senority list? Do Frontier guys get to pull out from that mess of a list and have their own list after the sell off to Indigo?

You live under a rock? Godspeed my F9 friends. Stay united, stay strong. Don't let Franke get away with the crap he tried here.

All I can say is that being from Denver, I have a great fondness for F9 from both a customer and professional standpoint. I have been disappointed with the whole Republic thing over the years.
I have only optimism for the future of frontier and my many friends that work there. As a fledgling Spirit pilot I am still curious about the merger possibility and would be proud to be associated with the F9 brand should that occur. Well to be honest a Denver base would be a beautiful thing as well. Good luck and remember that my predecessors at Spirit busted they're butts to get a respectable contract under what will be essentially your new management. You guys can do the same and should be gearing up for a fight with your profits starting to take off. Just my humble opinion.

Default What deal?

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000...315447162.html

"The sale appeared in jeopardy in recent days because of slow negotiations with Frontier's pilots and flight attendants. But hours before the expiration of Indigo's period of exclusive negotiations to buy Frontier, the two sides agreed to a deal in principle that is subject to a number of conditions, including a labor agreement with the pilots, the person said.

The groups representing the attendants and pilots in those negotiations with Indigo didn't respond to requests for comment."

I wonder what kind of deal the pilots agreed upon...

Your company is undergoing a gargantuan change and your first thought is to stick your tongue in someone else's face?

Good luck to all F9 pilots. I sincerely wish for an amicable divorce.

The toonsters deserve a good boot to the face. I guess a kick to the butt is just as good. F9 is facing a massive change for the better. Toonster land is the one that should be worried.
That irrelevant IMSL means nothing to anyone except the toonsters in their fantasyland.
