Bendo no showed day one. He went in around 1-2 in the afternoon of day 2. Yesterday we gave them our proposal. Nothing was agreed upon, yet.

She then said you'd have to call a 800 # to rebook for tomorrow, wrote that # on a sign and taped to the podium and walked away saying she had another flight to work. Some pax were getting a little indignant and a security guard stood outside the gate area but within site of pax as she left.
I had to ride the bus back to the other terminal so I didn't stick around to see how it played out, but did think it was weird that they would blame a pilot specifically whether it was true or not.

Maybe now the pilots should tell the agents that if a flight cancels it was because the CEO is missing from negotiations and could not be located.

It's okay, the pilot was located...he was in a red brick building on the north side of ATL.

I think the union should set up a twitter account and tweet back at all the angry pax that reach out to spirit with complaints. It's a lot of people. Every day.
