Can you show me on the model plane where Spirit touched and hurt you?

Every airline can leave you “high and dry”. You live in base at a growing airline with a proven business model. Can you just buckle up and hang on like the rest of us? You’re bumming everyone out!

Getting stuck in a basement in san Juan is not high and dry that's criminal. What if it escalated past that? Would you say the same thing if some crew got seriously hurt? Or just water under the bridge it seems with the majority here. Ted or someone should get the axe for just that. I'm done anyways clearly the regional may have been better and waiting for the call from somewhere else.

Considering a basement is below ground, I’d agree. It’s not “high”. Clearly, yes it’s a disaster. Should NK change things? Sure. But should they have expected a full on riot? Have you read the news about American crews sleeping in baggage claim? You’re simply just spewing stress on here and I honestly hope you get an outlet like a therapist. This much negativity is not healthy.

Contract was great. Home basing in fll.
What I didn't know was that management here was inept. Though I hear allot of people saying they have thick veins etc how many old dogs said that and then got canned from their job. It's not about being some salty tough airline guy it's being proactive. If this meltdown showed me anything this management team will flat out leave its employees out to dry. See under the gate agent issues etc / staffing to some pilots hiding in a bunker. Would love to see some of the people on this thread say with a straight face that that's normal.
And no that's not stuff you can expect or read about before you apply to a job as this meltdown is basically unprecedented in its scope in the modern Era. Still no communication either about what they are really doing if anything to fix it

I’ll tell you with a straight face that it is normal. Not ideal but normal. Don’t expect Spirit or any other ULCC to change their business model and start to staff their whole operation for the couple days a year they have operational difficulties. Ask JetBlue how long it takes to get ahold of scheduling when they are having cancellations. Ask any pilot if they think their company is staffed adequately to handle big weather or cancellation events. Even the legacy’s fall apart. It’s part of the game.
Realistically I think Spirit will put out some press releases saying they’re sorry and going to increases wages so they can hire and retain more. They’ll probably invest a little more in their IT and customer service and claim they’ve solved the meltdown issue. Until they outgrow their changes and it happens again.…

It's also literally management's job to prepare for these things. I would ask what are they doing. If anyone knows great. If not then it's much as anyone else. A guessing game. Heh wasnt at gojets but I was never hiding from the public at the regionals either.
