Nothing til mid year now. Bloomberg article few days ago. Google it. We have no order. Missed out. Hope we merge. That’s our only future of growth. Otherwise we are a slow simmering airline. Few planes every year. Long upgrade to life on reserve. We will get to 177 by 2021. THen maybe 220 over next 10 years. Picking up straggling bus here and there. Prob gonna have order of 50 E190 most likely or take JetBlue’s. Glad I got on when I did. I wouldn’t come here now. I’d choose any other airline over Spirit now. We should be last choice for new hires. IMHO. This is a pretty good airline if your 2+ years here. If not. Get out. And go elsewhere for better brighter future

This isn’t true at all, stop being dramatic. If management wants new planes they will get them.
