That wasn’t at all aimed at the pilot group. Aimed at Biffle and Franke

I'm with you. The toxic Frontier management was a no-go for me. The clarity that came out of the past 6 months that our management wasn't much different was telling.. The day trips was an absolute mistake.

Got a little nugget from Today's B6 pocket session in the question bank. Can we stop thinking all the NK pilots will end up in the Northeast now?

We've been telling y'all that mgmt started to realize they need to spread out. Dave is our network and planning guyhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...5b8d2167aa.jpg

Yup and you can bet he'll be crying to the DOJ after the NK shareholders approve the deal.

You know this is a point I hand't considered. How many airlines do you think are working behind the scenes to get this deal cancelled.

Spirit may be a slightly more expensive airline to fly on after this deal closes, but i can’t imagine any way they won’t offer a significantly and commensurately higher quality product. Frontier will be the new quality bottom feeder and Biffle seems quite proud of it.

It sure is interesting how many of these wounded CEOs know all the bad things that will happen if NK and B6 merge.

All of them.

Especially Deltuh.

This merger would provide an entire consumer base a legacy experience at a discounted rate. Tell me how that’s unfair? But it’s perfectly ok to have 6 legacies tie up into 3 and call it day? They literally have 80% of the market. Frontier has the ULCC market to itself. There’s a vacuum for more startup airlines. Nothing about this seems unfair.
