But rather than getting better infrastructure to deal with that problem, let’s just make more 1 day trips so it’s the pilots problem. The idea that we are gonna get better QOL by going with Frontier is hilarious.
Sounds like someone here doesn't like synergies!

Synergies is the most important thing to me, it’s the first thing I think about when I wake up every day

But that being said....aren't you at least a little suspicious of the messaging from NK management as well?

Personally, in my view the messaging from JB has been more inline with reality as well as most of what I have read online from various industry analysts.

There's no doubt gamesmanship is afoot!

Last I checked JB's upgrade time was just as fast as NK and JB's hiring plan for the year exceeded Spirit's on a percentage growth basis.

Things at both shops need improvement, but JB is far from stagnant.
