Not much to talk about with the SLI… ALPA to ALPA. If you look at both list, your seniority based on DOH a lone will give you almost the same % within the new mega ULCC.

The difference in flexibility between Spirit and F9 is simple
At Spirit you can drop as much flying as the system will allow and never hear a word from a manager Chief pilot or the training department unless you're going to dequal.
At F9, if you don't maintain at least 60 hours per month 6 months a year, and 70 hours per month 6 months per year, expect to hear from your Chief pilot.
The work-life balance at Spirit is far superior.

Just want to pop in and say that I am so pleased how well everyone is working together so far. If we can keep this up as a pilot group, we will be in for a big win. Together we are much better than seperated. Thankfully the differences in our current contracts are small, so this should go fairly smoothly, at least on our end. Glad to be partnering up with the F9'ers.

Hello fellow F9'ers. Looking forward to working with y'all. Just a few questions/rumors I've heard.
Is it true that it's 50% scheduled deadhead pay? I read that in the contract comparison our union put out and my eyes almost popped out of my head.
Also do they really make you pay for your snacks while flying?
That being said your 125% over 82 hours with our green/red, dropping to zero, and 200% premium pay would be great.

I would definitely not call that "far superior".
It is better, and as an F9 I agree that we should be able to drop lower and would be interested in retaining zero in the spirit contract.
