So first week post holidays when nothing happens in the corporate world. I’m unconvinced the f9 merger is happening, but if it does I would think it would have to be soon. That 50 million isn’t gonna last long in the trough months.

Congratulations
Congratulations ….NK is still kooked. It’s just a matter of time, admittedly it’s been longer than expected but it will happen. I hope the best for NK but it’s pretty clear what this outcome will be. Can’t staff the airline even at 200%. With all the sick calls and the exodus starting to roll into high gear now that the holidays are over it’s gonna be a never ending irop until they just close the doors. NK ALPA is in shambles to boot. [mod edit]
Sorry to all the good people doing their best at NK get out while you still can. |

Listen to the last airlines confidential podcast about spirit and F9. We fired our CEO and have an interim in place. They seem to think that Dave is going to run the combined airline as he has apparently (from a management and corporate perspective) steered spirit in the proper direction and actually done very well with the BK so far. |

But who fires their CEO right before winning a merger deal?? Even a lame duck CEO would be allowed to do a victory lap before being escorted out the back door... |

…and I’m the troll. lol ok. What has Davis achieved for the company. I agree he was given an impossible task but nothing has gotten better of anything the viability of NK has gone off a cliff. I don’t think there are any “haters” no one is rooting for spirits demise, there are just delusional hold outs screaming at all of us who left and made the right call. Yall are the real haters. Get off the Titanic. |

much so the entire industry came for them with long knives. Now they’re wounded, geniuses left the seniority list to plant themselves behind 25 year olds(sucks/hurts). |
Y'all notice these cheerleader accounts and weirdos all have new accounts? all a month old or so....

That was an era when BK was allowed as a matter of bookkeeping convenience, vice last-ditch survival option. So the court probably didn't see the equity in wiping out common shareholders if the company was only moderately distressed.
But laws have changed since, you need to be in really bad shape for the court to even entertain a BK plea now. That's for corporate, as far as I know individuals can still load up the lifestyle on credit cards and then just tap out at any time, no questions asked. |

Yet 50+ diverts from the CAT III airport ATL this past morning. Autoland means nothing if the vis is so low you can't taxi it all the way to the gate. That remains to be seen.

Well, we’re still here!
I’m so proud of this “down with the ship” pilot group. 2026 is going to be a great year for us! Below is the list of the relentless “Spirit is liquidating by the end of 2025” cheerleaders.

No investor is saving us. Look at the meltdown we just had the past few weeks, COO begging people to come work on their days off while we have 850+ on furlough. Attrition is going to rapidly accelerate the next 30, 60, and 90 days. We just entered the beginning of a death spiral. If our liquidity crisis doesn’t bury us, our staffing problems will. It’s over. It won’t be long before all of us will be called upon to work that final “Back to Base” repo trip before we shut the f$ck down. |
Management is never going to allow you to know the truth. Most likely you will work your last leg at Spirit and not even know it was going to be your last leg. Because if you DID know it….you’d disrupt it somehow.

Yup. I fully expect to land on the opposite side of the country to a voicemail saying my ID badge is no longer valid and I need to purchase my own ticket home.

Probably. I'd be tempted to leave with a souvenir... most airbus parts are probably worth the price of the ticket home.

Most of us would float buddy passes to get yall home. Or give up a jumpseat to get you back by midnight. If that happens we gotta stick together. |
