Default So how’s this gonna work out?

So we just started contract negotiations with a company about to go bankrupt…

so are we planning on asking for a pay cut then??? how do they picture this one working out for us?

I think the best thing would be just to leave this thing alone.


maybe they will threaten the company with more pilots leaving, because I’m sure that’s the last thing they want. Lol

The move to open negotiations is just a move to save face with that particular part of the pilot group. Spirit will announce Bankruptcy in April just as Ted has done before and it won't matter anyway.

Will he announce furloughs before or after the bankruptcy in April? Maybe he will declare both in the same sentence. Maybe he’ll wait till your birthday.

I’m at least $60 an hour paid less than my peers and no profit sharing. What planet do you live on?
