LMFAO…..yeah……cause the last one went so poorly. :rolleyes:

No mergers for quite a while thanks to COVID money and restrictions it came with.

SWA looks for bargains and airlines are not cheap right now, add to that if inflation and an economic downturn are possible in the not-so-distant future.

With an acquisition you will get pilots, routes, gates and most of all eliminating a competitor. My bet is it will be Spirit no one would care if they got assimilated by the borg. Also Boeing would be thrilled to get rid of an airbus airline in the USA.

I think Alaska would be a better fit fleet wise, but I’m afraid you may be right about Spirit. That’s what Southwest was going to do with Frontier (eliminate all the Airbii) and buy new Boeings. I guess what’s old is new again.

Perhaps it will be Frontier again since all we keep hearing is an explosion in DEN and they plan to add nearly 1000 flight attendants to make the largest base in SWA history.

yeah that was pretty bad. APC should have a 4 beer limit

I need a breathalyzer on my phone for APC postings. Sometimes an edit is in order the following morning.

I’ll read it again when properly bev’d up. I’m sure it will make sense then.

New Hire Training Questions
 

Can someone confirm for me that SWA is NOT currently hiring?

Also, what has been the historical training pay for new hire pilots from start of indoc to completion of their type rating?

Thanks in advance.
