In other news:

The long haul unit of Budget carrier Air Asia will start flights from the US to Japan and continue on to Kuala Lumpur using A330s

Air France pilots have approved the carriers plan to create a low cost long haul airline.

Add those to WOW and NAI.

Can anyone say SCOPE!!!!! Read our codesharing language and try not to vomit.

Yes, I'm frustrated. I wanted this to be my last airline. And my friends here felt the same way. But it's hard to accept the fact you and those like you continue to grab your ankles at every turn and give cover to mediocre performance. I've know people like you my whole life. The ones afraid the sky is going to fall. Never question anything. Guys that can't imagine there might be a better way. We need guys like you. Someone has to be the worker bee. Keep apologizing for the molasses pace of negotiations.

Where are the survey results? Where's the quid? Where's the progress? Where's the monthly response to managements dragging their feet?

Go ahead, keep bashing me. The rest of us who expect better will push our leaders to negotiate a contract we deserve.

Poor Gunga Dim, having to carry the cross for the entire pilot group.

Delusional dimwits do not help push the agenda, they instead attempt to derail it while pushing issues of little to no importance.

Survey results? Seriously? You have not heard the union say over and over they can not release publicly the exact list of wants from this pilot group, for management to see? You claim you have been to union picketing events, you havent heard this? I have probably heard this 10 times between PUB events, picketing, conference calls, and direct talks with the union/NC. Deaf, dumb or blind...which is it?

Yes. Heard it. Not gullible. Sorry. Every other airline publishes at least the basics.
Just another excuse put out there to cover performance. One of these days you'll get tired of grabbing your ankles and wake up.

First DB you don't know me. I've never done a favor for this company, I have never taken a JM and don't plan on taking one until this contract is done. Can you say the same? I actually do work for this pilot group, which is a lot more than you can say.

I'm disappointed by the pace, but for the most part this is the company's fault. keep blaming all the pilots around you though, you "pro-pilot"

Guess what we don't need guys like you. I wouldn't be surprised if you were management trying to break the union by constantly creating mistrust and spreading misinformation. How many times have people pointed out your bad information you spew on here? And you continue to spew it over and over.

I'll keep bashing you as long as you continue to bash our pilots in the union doing real work on our behalf. If you ever figure out the enemy is the company and not the union I'll stop. Until then you are the biggest DB at Spirit. Sorry to be so harsh but you need to know how huggggge of a DB you are.

Ever think the survey results are irrelevant now. Considering that southwest signed, delta signed, united snapped up, and Hawaiian signed

Also, unfortunately the Miami Air or sub service is contractually legal.

Lastly, Worthless Bendover didn't just not show up, he had a BOD meeting and the other clowns with the ability to negotiate were present.

Anyway, the only ones who can get us a contract is US.

Also, maybe if some of our CAs would just fng stop for a month, I mean Jesus Christ talk about selfish. Just stop helping for one month, stop going above and beyond to help rescue this place

Actually . FO,s are carrying the torch. They can do some serious damage if they hold the fort. Captain chockers won't be able to swallow gravy.
