Default Cancelling all flights from April 8th-30th?

Is this true? Someone sent it to me. Can't find anything in the news. I obviously don't work for Spirit.

True. Canceling all flight and dropping 56 revenue flights per day into open time. All pilots will be TAJ

Darn it. This might mean everyone that bid VIL just shot themselves in the foot if they do this same thing next month.🙈.

This is a much better plan than flying around empty IMO

The bid for VIL is still open, so you’re not committed to it yet

Monthly payroll for the same period last year was roughly $73M. Even if you double that for lease payments and everything else I’m forgetting we can last about 6 months and change with our current cash reserves if we don’t take the grant/loan. The latest email made it sound like that was still under consideration.
