He didn't have a clue at AT either. So in essence he's maintaining the status quo

I used to work with Bob directly he is a great man that did a lot of very good things for all AirTran employees. Of course I realize that a significant number of people that worked for AT at the time do not feel the same.
I can only hope he has plans to help the people of Spirit the same way he helped the people of AT. Just looking at a year over year comparison of what he has done at Spirit so far it is my opinion every employee at the airline should give this man a big ole wet kiss for what he is doing. Customer complaints are WAY down and padding the block times to build more time into the schedule so you can actually run an on time operation are things that should have been addressed years ago.

Best CEO this airline has ever had..hands down

Bahahahaha! I used to work for him. You just lost any shred of credibility you had (although judging by your posts I doubt you had much with this group).
