Looks like you guys might be right. Ted and bendo briefing the MEC followed by "strategic planning" doesn't sound great to me. I don't pay a ton of attention to these announcements though so maybe it's fairly standard. Maybe it's just to tell the MEC to pound sand regarding opening negotiations.
Any theories, if it is a reduction, on why if we are supposedly going to be net neutral with staffing after the deliveries this year? these. I also Can’t imagine they would furlough prior to the Appeal playing out |

It’s February…. The axe should have already come. Why would they furlough before the spring break and summer time push? Just relax this is the airline industry welcome to not all sunshine and rainbows…
The smartest comment of this post👏. FYI, the meeting is about VIL's!!! |
Reuters lurking around here for news source.

Last night I commuted home (on us) from a reserve assignment. The captain said he was 10 years and had just applied to United (lives in Denver).

10 years out helps what? 80% of the list? https://giphy.com/gifs/3sZlRwZfxAI8g |

Who knows. But if spirit survives 2024, which they will, then when 2025 hits and we have all of our planes back and running...lets just say if they furloughed, X and Y list calls will be through the roof. Doesn't seem to make sense to furlough. Definitelty see VILs as a possibility though.
Who said the planes will be back in 2025. This is a multi year issue w the engines. It will peak at the end of 2024 w 40 planes down. Further, excess capacity in the ULCC model is another major issue with profitability. Having all that extra capacity flying wouldn’t necessarily help our situation if people don’t want what we are selling or don’t want it at a price that is profitable at least. The company has to evolve and it doesn’t sound like the leadership has any real plans |
