I read the TA and I said NO way.

Then I watched the ALPA video and realized that there is so much more that we giving up. So i voted today, HELL NO.

Spirit Airlines is going to have a unbelievable cost advantage over the competition.

No, I’m not management or a kool-aid drinker so save the comments. I’m looking at this TA logically, and it’s mostly a win for us.

Naw, why would we want that? Being furloughed is sooo much more fun!

I’d be willing to bet my entire signing bonus check on it. I’m not thrilled about this TA either, but I have not heard one reasonable argument about the path forward if this thing gets shot down.

I’ve heard a lot of senior guys say the biggest reason why they are voting NO is that they don’t want the junior guys to have to suffer through the “terrible” reserve language. None of the junior guys I have talked to give a crap and are ready for a pay raise lol.

Edit: I don’t know why I quoted you in my post... I guess I just wanted to bully someone.
