Don't be so comfortable. Best thing for Spirit pilots is for Legacy carriers to have a vested interest in international travel. Last thing Spirit pilots want are Legacy carriers intensely refocusing on the domestic side

Most of you aren't gonna wanna hear it, but LCCs are gonna be the place to be from now on.

What about the major airlines here that don't have wide bodies? We should be cool?

Spirit does what it does very well. UAL has recently adopted the Spirit model for Basic Economy because it seems a growing market for folks who are extremely price conscious. But far away the most profitable portion of UAL's market is made up of folks that aren't interested in the Spirit product. We will see....

The LCC segment will definitely see some consolidation in the near future as well.

At about $80 more an hour with the new pay raises for narrow body Captain, I think I'll stay put. UAL has more to fear from Trump's saber rattling with China than it does with Norwegian.

If you think I'm being dramatic, you simply don't fully understand whats going on. Companies rise and fall. Like I keep saying, how many US flag cruise lines can you name that operate today?
