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 sheet just hit the fan ...but needed to happen...let’s hope it’s like ripping off a band aid. short term pain for better results long term...Guessing we can weather this for 3 months max... then it’s down the rabbit hole we go

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