Imagine what the numbers would have been if properly staffed!
But why come to NK when B6 is hiring? Sure, you might have to do a tour in the Embraer, but so what? You’ll still come out better off economically, and likely wind up in the same place. Why go to either airline? Almost every regional is paying more now. Might as well hang out there until a legacy calls. |

Regionals are starting to fall apart due to CA loss. A recession might save them - maybe - but B6 pay and bennies trump regional FO pay, and there are plenty of regional FOs stuck on reserve and barely getting block right now due to the CA shortage. Another type and more flying hours will get them to their legacy faster than 25-30 a month reserve.

Looking at the 10-Q, we had record revenue and barely made a profit of 3.6m, after applying some funny money adjustments and write offs. The operation still lost money.
Aircraft utilization in the third quarter 2022 was 10.6 hours, down 15.2 percent compared to the 12.5 hours in the same period of 2019. Continued constraint on flights to and from Florida and staffing challenges are the primary limitations on Spirit's ability to optimize its network and operate its fleet at full utilization. “The constraints limiting our ability to optimize our network continue to be a headwind to reaching full utilization; that said, our team is doing a great job running a reliable, on-time operation and minimizing the impacts of these constraints. Despite the large number of aircraft deliveries over the next few months, we remain confident we will continue to see gradual improvement in fleet utilization in the fourth quarter and throughout the first half of next year, reaching full utilization around mid-summer 2023," said Scott Haralson, Spirit's Chief Financial Officer. |

Bang up job by the beard and the boys. They deserve a big bonus. |

To be fair, most of the airlines are reporting record revenue, however a large chunk of that is merely offsetting fuel…. For us, I would hope we would have record revenue as we are larger now than we were last year, and the year before that, and the year before that, etc….
