Thanks, I agree. That said it's just interesting that we only serve 7 airports in the western half of the US.

I agree. Any place that works for Spirit is good with me. And speaking of new destinations we got more coming.

VPS is to be announced soon on Dec 20th as well.

STL, OKC will start on January 16th

But hey I wouldn’t think he has any complaints either...new contract, aircraft order coming soon, lots of hiring, new Florida destinations. If your a Spirit pilot here why would you be complaining? Unless your one of those pilots that got your butt hurt because you didn’t get all your demands in your new contract and like to complain about it. Just think, it could be worse, you could you could be at Frontier (no disrespect) right now.

I’ve thought about this too but where else would we really go on the west coast? I could see SLC, possibly ABQ. But we sorta have the big city centers covered on the west coast.

Calgary, Vancouver, Edmonton, Anchorage, Honolulu and so on. We need to serve these markets.

Canada would be sweet but for whatever reason they’re hesitant to go into Canada.

Some of these cities make sense but some seem too small for Spirit to hassle with. But who knows what they will do. I’m happy with any growth and would like to see more west coast stuff as well. Maybe Sacramento...

I wouldn't say any of them are too small for Spirit. Don't forget this is the same company flying to places like CAK and LBE, and most recently JAX.
