Default Widebody’s at Spirit?

Would it be....
A350-900?
A330-200/300?
A330 NEO’s?

If now isn’t the time for the USA to have a ULCC go international, when is? It takes a few years to get the A/C programs up and running etc. Could it be possible we order a handful of short-medium range C-Ceries and Long Haul aircraft. MCO and FLL south & east. BWI east. And possibly, but doubtful, LAX west? Time will tell, the big 3 don’t really have much International growth, JB is codeshared out, and besides NAX, why not give it a go. Of course our current biz model works, however the fork in the road is quickly approaching it seems.

The only thing management wants to go Deep South is our QOL.

NO seriously. I didn’t hear anyone saying the DS bit. Where did you here that?

Was this the same guy who said LAX was the next crew base?

Folks.. relax. If we order planes they’re going to be the 220 or 320. Or similar size. If we get anything bigger we’d get bought before they ever showed up.

Anyone know the door code in LAX crew base? Oh yeah.. never mind.
