No, but sometimes I get so tired of his schtick that I have to call out his crap.

    San Antonio-we used to do, but I would think we would do very well there.

    I would love Anchorage. We could definitely snag customers from Alaska Airlines...seems like Southwest is already beating Alaska up on the west cost/Hawaii and we can go in for some more punches.

    Quito- yeah! Why not...jet blue does it out of FLL so can we.

    lubbock-ehh probably not big enough but then again some other small cities we serve surprises me.

    Salt Lake City- the airport is about to finish expansion. I think we would give a whack at it once it’s complete.

    maybe more tropical destinations because that is where everyone is flocking to... Liberia, Costa Rica.... Port of Spain, Cozumel???

I even said it was once the expansion is completed. Which in the company email that’s even what they said...because of the new expansion.

Anybody think BOI could be a next add it seems more likely now

It’s not worth getting worked up over once you realize it’s a schtick.

Why not? Populations about the same as SLC. For that matter, there’s also GEG if you want more northwestern cities. It’s got about the same population. Then there is a fair number of Canadian cities… if the country ever reopens.

Since anything beats studying my NEO start limitations, I'll waste some bandwidth too.

Medically grounded, "teaching" Recurrent and Basic Indoc when Jacob buys the airline from Ned. Literally, my first day of teaching Basic Indoc, Jacob (I figure out who he is somehow) comes in late and sits in the back row. PowerPoint had just been invented, and I was the Master of PowerPoint - if we could steal the only computer projector from Marketing, which I did. Any reference to Crew Scheduling was "Screw Sked" and other ha ha funnies like McDonald's Douglas. So I get invited to Jacobs office at 5pm that day. I'm thinking "maybe I can get fired from Kalitta teaching bad ground school" when Jacob just says I'll be in his office teaching Basic Indoc personally every day at 5pm so he can get his 121 Type in the DC-9 to go with his Citation Type.

He really wanted to be on the Seniority List and be one of the "Line Slime" who happened to own the airline, but ALPA wasn't having it, and I think it hurt his feelings.

Anyway, every single recurrent he would come in and take questions from the class for 30 minutes. My entire point is, 25 of those minutes were guys suggesting new routes. 90% of which were either the guys hometown, or a station that would make their life more commutable. No talk about quarters of profitability until we can go public, how this new automated OOOI thing was going to work, why is SOCC set-up like the war room from Dr. Strangelove (with all the same characters), just new station suggestions.

So my suggestion to Sandi for applicants is stop asking "Why Spirit?" and start asking the real life meat and potatoes: "What's our next station and why?"

Please don't let the thread drift by bringing up the topless pool parties on Las Olas either. I'm not taking my top off for just a buck for anyone anymore. I have my dignity.
