How are our loads looking? Anyone see a reduction in passengers? A lot of no-shows? I’ve been out of the loop for a while.

Spirit doesn’t care if they are good or not...they just can’t find help at all...

it’s kinda hard for a business to compete for labor with the government who has an unlimited supply of the tax payers money to had out for welfare.

For the record in Florida the governor ended federal unemployment benefits in June, so the unemployment went back down to about $200 a week.
