Would love to see your source for this talking point that you’ve been clinging to.

Here’s an article that says otherwise, albeit not the best source, but everything i’ve seen indicates the opposite of what you’ve been saying

“JetBlue is based in Queens, New York, and has an East Coast focus, with New York, Boston, Orlando and Fort Lauderdale being the airline’s most served destinations. Its routes have far more overlap with Spirit”

Yes, I'm quoting the JBLU press releases... Haven't seen Spirit refute that point, not once.

The article talks about regions, never mentions direct routes competed on, and I believe it is poorly researched clickbait.

he’s using Robin Hayes propaganda. The JetBlue presentation that Cherry picked some stats. We overlap with With F9 on some cities but not the same days but That counts as ‘overlap.’

anyone knows you look at the departure board in FLL/MCO/SJU/LGA/BDL/BOS it’s yellow and blue on the same routes.
He keeps spitting the same 2 lines. Rinse and repeat

Odd, you didn't mention LAS... Somehow only airports that B6 hubs is your criteria for overlap. Odd argument.

JB has made their case for overlap in many press releases. Spirit has never refuted that point, not once.

Frankie is already calling the shots. Ted is merely a puppet now. Frankie says NO.

Anybody know how that DFW Captain that left to go to American Airlines for better QOL is doing?

He must really be enjoying the rescheduling rules they have there.

I wasn’t concerned about what equipment they are on or where they were based day 1. My point is more so about this guy complaining how things are at Spirit. Yet he went to a place where I keep hearing they reschedule you like crazy and you have to call the hotel desk yourself. Even APA has put out a video how they’re sick and tired of it.

I just find it poetic he emails the pilot group that he is going to a place where work rules are even worse.

maybe his real reason was the money and he left under a pretext that it was the work rules.

Who cares? If you have questions call him yourself. His phone number isn’t hard to get from any DFW guy.
