The planes flying make money, enough to cover their own expenses.
PW covers the cost of the parked planes but not lost revenue. The problem NK is suffering from, is having the staff and facilities for 250 airplanes, and only 180 airplanes actually generating revenue. We are over staffed on crews, middle management and a useless hotel type building and empty sim bay. Just running the AC alone is killing them. |

Boeing paid Alaska more for one door falling off than P&W is paying spirit for all of the affected planes being grounded for 2024. |

It’s not like NK came to the table with much leverage. |

Fixed engines isn’t going suddenly make us profitable. |
