You guys should be proud. F9 got a steaming loaf that isn’t going to mitigate much if any -not furloughed-but-actually-furloughed pilots.

And to top it off the company gets to unleash pbs for December. The joke is that your NK flight attendants got a better deal than we did.

This is fantastic news! Congratulations to the MEC for doing an incredible job in this incredibly unique time. In addition, a huge thanks and appreciation to the management team at Spirit. I have been at the negotiating table during talk of staff reductions and the EIL, and VIL options in addition to the cancelling of 100+ furloughs is a true testiment to managements commitment to our pilot group. I don't usually sing managements praises, but they really stepped up and deserve our thanks and appreciation!

ALPA and management both deserve HUGE props for making this happen. I have been nothing short of impressed with how this COVID situation has been handled by both parties. Thank you! For the first time in my 15 year airline career, I feel like I’m being treated like the professional I am.

As someone said earlier, keep the wheels turning boys and girls, I’ll be back next year.

Truly an amazing achievement. Thanks to ALPA, EIL/VIL takers, and the company for making this happen.

my previous airline would have refused to even meet with ALPA, furloughed whoever they wanted with 2 weeks notice, and edited the reduction bid results so they would pay less involuntary moving costs without batting an eye.

so thankful to be part of this group

Haha. Yeah, the training department has already seen some of us after a few months of VIL and unused LCR....so they know we will need some extra time for the longer EIL
