When does the "shoe drop" at Spirit with furloughs?

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.

sounds like poor negotiation with P&W. 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.

This business model doesn’t make money. Fixed engines isn’t going suddenly make us profitable.

Do you know if they have sent out the official WARN notices of furlough to the individuals or has it just been the general corporate announcement that 260 needed to be furloughed? I figure that the WARN notices would have to be out or going out very soon to meet the legal requirements of notice.
