I don't know who will end up with SAVE but Franke is going to have to negotiate and pay something. Shareholders will revolt.
You’re forgetting one thing: Synergies!

They are probably pretty confused now:

Easy man. There's absolutely zero difference between a Spirit pilot and a JetBlue pilot. None. Zip. They have white shirts (and can probably get more whenever they want). We have blue shirts (and can't get more). That's it.

The fact is that if this deal does go through, as all will have to row together to get a good contract. Posts like this make no sense, and drive division before we even know if we might get to work together someday.

Some Spirit guys don't want the JetBlue deal because they are concerned about losing out in the deal. That's understandable. It would make the most sense it we all just work together to ensure that no one side loses out in the process. At the end of the day, we are all along for the ride, so it's silly to even take sides in some sort of made up battle. The true battle is labor versus management.

You have to call your broker.

Did the ISS identify which acquisition will provide the employees the shortest wait times when trying to contact crew scheduling? Currently at a 1hr10min and counting. Pathetic
