This is precise what you got and y'all are jerking each other off.

Got it
For someone who does t work for Spirit you sure stick your nose on our forum an awful lot. Don’t you have some animals you can go torture.

If you elect not to waive it, all your scheduling preferences will be predicated on building you a schedule worth (insert agreed upon hours) and having the 4 days off in between, all other preferences be damned.

I mean, I guess some people want no control over their schedule and all their care about is that 4 days off in between.

Beats 2 on 1 off any day, worry about your own schedule while we enjoy ours.

Just curious as to what happened to the: We're the most profitable airline with the largest margins thus we should be paid the most, industry standard contract at DOS, the legacies are our peers and we demand no less, discount airline/not discount pilots, it'll only increase our CASM by 2 cents!! Attrition is 200%!! We are not LOW TIER!

Was it the plan to demand an industry leading contract until signing an industry trailing one?

Just confused.

Meh, you know how it is, lol. Look man. I get you dont like Spirit, or it’s pilots or whatever but most of us (at least 70%) are pretty happy right now. There are a lot of good things in the TA and a lot of reasons to be thankful. Wasnt that long ago I had a kid on the way and was stressing out over how to save money while making $35/hr at Expressjet as a 7th year F/O,...........

Anyway, time for us to move on.....

Bingo Feng!!

I said the same last year and the cheerleaders said no PBS or we strike. Then they said legacy rates for PBS or we strike. Then they just bent over!

This is at the core of what's wrong. We clearly hired RJ guys that have been beat down and don't think they're worth anything. We should just make new hires pay for their A320 types. OMG!

TA ratified today.
Get your 30% lanyard so you can feel superior.
Try to humiliate yes voters on APC, but it won’t change anything.
