alienate your customer base and that’s what happens.

seems like spirit is on the same path.

so what happens if the judge denies spirits new business plan on the 29th of Jan? Do they have to redo their plan and then resubmit?

Also, does anyone know the next key dates to look out for concerning next steps in the process?

You’re letting the JB merger case influence your thinking. Anyone that can comprehend adult-like instances, by withholding their political bias and or general cynicism, knew the merge would never happen and was almost certainly designed to destroy the F9/NK merger. Judges don’t just deny stuff simply because…..insert belief here. We don’t know the details exactly but it’s highly unlikely that any of the parties involved want to see additional loses as a result of a prolonged case.

I personally believe there’s a greater chance of the plan itself failing vs any sort of denial in judgement. Plus I’m not sure that’s how it works. Present plan details - Plan rejected - back to the table - additional proceedings etc. I think they’d just tweak things if possible to reach an agreement.

If they hired Ford Harrison they will absolutely try to bully, bluster, and/or bluff the unions into taking cuts.

that and their lawyers will analyze every work groups contract/work rules. The will find every loop hole and advise mgmt how to exploit the contracts/work rules without violating said agreements.

Google their website… experts in keeping unions off property and “working” with them.

I suggest reading the book “confessions of a union buster”. Written by a former Ford/Harrison employee

Unfortunately that would be my take.

Spirit Management may have said they don’t intend to touch the pilot CBA but they left out the part about how it really isn’t up to them during bankruptcy.
