If you’re asking about the 401k loan/disbursement portion of the CARES act you’ve got until the end of the year.

Talking with Schwab we were one of the first to implement that provision.

You have one country that literally locked people in their own apartment complexes, and has a government and populace that are willing to use and often accept totalitarian government actions. Screw up over there and you disappear like that researcher from the Wuhan virology lab.

We closed gyms, bars and limited restaurants to take out while recommending people don’t travel unnecessarily. It’s a world of difference that you don’t appreciate.

China has a huge GDP because the rest of the world has farmed out their supply chains to the Middle Kingdom. Can you think of anything going on right now that might be hampering that? They are not a consumer society in the sense that we are. Take away the rest of the world’s demand for their cheaply made widgets, and their GDP is pitiful for a population as large as theirs. Sure, they’ve got malls and huge cities that most westerners can’t begin to name. But they won’t get their economy moving until the rest of the world gets moving itself.

well you finally got to the point though thanks for the lesson on China. Yes they will not get going until other economies as well start moving. That moving though is not to be at the expense of lives. If you are one of the people who think its better to lose a life, yours mine or someone else's to move the market thats on you. If you think that its not up to what you think should happen but when modern medicine says its ok to go outside again then your probably on the right track.

I don't know why anyone is worried about furloughs. It's clear from this thread (and most on APC), that even if that happens, most posters can get a well paying job in virtually any field they want. Because clearly you are all experts on everything, not just flying.

Why not? If interest from the US gov is lower than the interest they were going to have to pay for financing part of that 100 plane order of NEOs, Spirit would be insane to not take the lower rate loans.

We are all going through some crap, the company obviously had to cut flights and we respond with group grievances because every single pilot was not contacted properly? Everyone knows we are all time available this month, it's common sense. I understand always wanting to uphold the contract but these grievances look bad right now and could be addressed later. We are technically right in doing so but I just find it to be at the wrong time with everything going on. The Union wants to be strong but these recent grievances emails annoy me.
