Summer meltdowns a thing of the past
 
Well looks like this new crew network restructuring thing has paid off. We seem to recover pretty fast along with most other airlines. (Even better than Delta)

let me put it to you in terms of Mad Max…

THE OLD WAY

<Meltdown happened and we try to recover>

Airline Management: we are on the road to Valhalla!!! “Witness me!!!!!”


<Unable to recover fast enough from a melt down>

Spirit Pilots: “ mediocre!!”


THE NEW WAY

<Meltdown happened and we try to recover>

Airline Management: we are on the road to Valhalla!!! “Witness me!!!!!”

<We recover in a reasonable amount of time>

Spirit Pilots: “witnessed!!!”


(if you have watched Mad Max, you’ll get it)

Getting rid of JM and replacing him with someone younger and more competent seems to really be paying off

Exactly. If Delta doesn’t watch out; it’ll be Spirit buying them instead of the other way around.

Spirit will have another epic meltdown, that I am sure. When or how that meltdown will occur, I have no idea. And make no mistake, the actions taken by management to "lessen the severity or longevity" of said meltdown will make zero ****ing difference....

Isn’t it fun to prognosticate? Quit! Beat it to another land. We are celebrating a win, stupid.

Normal ops are now so bad that when we do meltdown it’s just a hiccup…

Meh.

We're way overstaffed. Makes it easy to recover when you got double the reserves needed
