Perhaps the $ needed to attract management talent to work at Spirit is more than required at SWA. Perhaps it's a more challenging position.
They're not labor in an ULCC, they're here to manage the ULC labor.

They're compensation makes its way to the bottom line just like anyone else's. I can tell you being a pilot at spirit is more challenging than being a pilot at a legacy or southwest with the support we are given. Management likes to call it an increased level of captains authority. We don't just deserve industry standard we deserve industry leading. They are lucky we are only asking for standard.
As far as withholding services: it's no ones intent but if spirit continues to feel entitled to discount pilots we ALL fully plan on removing our services when legally allowed to do so. It's up to them. They can make it right now, or we can force them to and they can get their walking papers after taking the pilots to a strike and losing millions letting the airline meltdown a few times a year.

Mostly no. Because apparently that is NOT part of the ULCC business model. I'd bet a couple dozen donuts that upper management pay was not part of the company's presentation at the mediation session. I sure hope it was part of our presentation...

Yes, industry standard. But picking the three or four airlines with the best compensation out of the 15+ out there and then averaging their compensation, and then calling it an industry standard, does not actually make it industry standard. Surely you see that right?
