I heard 25 planes being sold. That would probably be more like 400 furloughs.

Are Spirit maintenance hanger pads becoming dealerships for brand new planes with recalls?

Because they’re selling airplanes.

I agree we are very heavy still on the FO side but why would the company not approve more NFL requests? I had a couple of months requested and wasn’t approved. Unless they’re angling just to furlough more off the bottom. Interesting times continue…

At least the F9 merger fell through

If we can't make money with what we have now, imagine an even bigger airline run by the same management team

Probably selling and leasing back.

It’s smart in this situation to capture cash. Sell everything. Spirit’s value is in its day to day operations. Quietly reduce the debt, keep the stock price low; bring in the buyers.
