I believe, we will all do our best in not delivering hot brakes during swaps.
However you will not hear any complaints from me, if I walk into a hot brakes AC. ;)
Now if the APU is off, and it's hot, that's a different story. :mad:
This summer let's take good care of our valued customers and each other, by delivering nicely cooled AC.
Personally, my optimal temp is 68-70F.

Thanks in advance. :)

On the positive side, Spirit has never had to beat up a guy, dragging him out of a "pre-reclined for your comfort seat!" Perhaps the opposite has occurred and we haven't heard about it?

In ops and everything forward of the flight deck door, I have nothing but respect for the Spirit team. In the main cabin, well ... you get what you pay for.

As an outsider who's had quite a few colleagues cycle through Spirit, I have never expected you all to get compensation to the level that would be on par with industry standard. But you deserve way more. Keep up the good fight!

You won't see a TA here until industry standard is negotiated...

Maybe Inspector Small Hands will investigate the perp's v-file and post the gravy sheet, like he did last week.

Glad to know he is a team player while I sit and don't answer my phone and refuse to help them.
Don't worry brother, you can thank the rest of us that had the fortitude to stand together.
Enjoy your gravy. Wish I could fly with you on a Lima so I could educate you for 6 hours.

Go see the DTW Cart on Res that pulled 212 for the month. Way to go!

Guys, directly from the MEC chair. File NCC's for r/g days plus iot/dot delay.

It is sad really that pilots are getting web board shamed for high credit hours. You don't know thier situation and you don't have a right to know. It is sad that you think not picking up JAs will make the company come begging for a deal. (It won't). The theory make sense but in practicality doesn't work. All we are doing is raising blood pressures and little Suzy doesn't get to go to disney world. Will a judge look upon us not picking up anything favorably? Probably will hinder the process.
