Time will tell about Spirit’s disability and mortality rate. We have a large amount of departures before the sun comes up and of course the red eyes. Most people wear the company headset which provides zero hearing protection. 10-20 years of that will have a large portion of us with permanent hearing loss. Let’s not forget the fume events, radiation, diet...

Curious if anyone has jumped ship to Spirit from another higher paying airline?
Was the first year pay cut worth it to go there?
Was it possible to pick up enough open time to try and reduce the gap in pay from former airline?
Is quality of life overall worth making the switch and having a painful year 1?
Any input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks guys appreciate it. QOL is big and the defined contribution is noting to laugh at (from my current point of view)!
Of course I’m sure the reserve life it will be for a while but on days off can open time be picked up and is it usually readily available?

Reserves can’t pick up open time, but you can put yourself on a list to be called for premium trips.
