5 years at NK, still have all my apps updated, no degree.
Go to a regional with flow, or go back to college.

Also understand that at our current pay rates you can't afford tuition is you're needing to finish a degree.

Just understand the climate you are volunteering to join....

It's all perspective, I know. Considering the environment I'd be vacating, it's an improvement on many fronts.

Gracemonth... people are very bitter given our state of labor disputes but don't let that deter you from doing what you think is right for you and your family. We have a good QOL and we're fighting hard to retain that and get our deserved raises. If you live in base QOL can be great not just good. I'd say with your times not only are you competitive but I'd also go as far as to say you may have an upper hand. No disrespect to you at all but with a degree and your experience your a better candidate for a legacy. Without it they know your chances of leaving are much slimmer and will probably go out of they're way to hire you. The contract will be resolved hopefully sooner rather than later. But there are question marks as to what kind of QOL items we'll be able to keep. Good luck and hope you get the call

Thank you! I'm hoping as well. It would be a great improvement for my family as well, and that's all part of the decision process for all of us (with families) isn't it? Cheers. Thanks for the uplifting reply!

Will Spirit be at any upcoming job fairs or have any "meet and greet" opportunities?

Spirit usually attends job fairs that Aero Crew Solutions is putting on, but I also know they have been doing some Chief Pilot Meet and greets also. ( I have not heard of any that they are having in the near future, but just keep coming back here and checking. Someone will post it if they have one).

Excellent, thank you!

A friend is attending a CP meet and greet in Atlanta next Monday. Sorry, I don't have specifics or confirmation.
