Will Spirit be hiring pilots still or will JetBlue start having a say on the hiring?

Operate as separate companies until the merger is approved by the DOJ.

We both have to run our own show for at least another show. Bet spirit does all their own hiring pretty much up until the merger closes

Does anyone know if this new agreement included a golden parachute for TC and the gang, and if so how much?


Has to be some carrot to keep him running NK while we wait for approval.

There is. They already qualified for half of the retention bonus. They get another next year.

Now I can delete my apps with the legacies. Let's go get a dope contract.

I couldn’t tell if you were being sarcastic or not. Why would you delete legacy apps?

Because I absolutely refused to work for Frontier and their management. Tbings have changed. Losing my base, seat, and seniority isn't do appealing now. Real talk.

Didn’t you hear? He’s officially at a legacy now…

Goodbye Ted. Hopefully Bendo not far behind you.

Every week that the companies are forced to maintain separate operations is millions of dollars of lost profits. Keep this in mind when reaching out to your reps and negotiating committee. Our two pilot groups will never have this kind of bargaining leverage again.

He's not wrong...
