But they already got involved to block a merger. They said spirit can’t go away because it’s important to the flying public….keeping prices down, etc…complete garbage right, we all agree on that. If Spirit goes away now, it’ll be no different than if they got acquired by B6 and went away 2 years ago, the industry will adapt. I’d just assume they stay out all together, but this is a win for me, so I’m all for it. But if it doesn’t materialize I’ll be fine with that too.

Glad I don’t work for that weirdo. |
senator cruz and Warren agree on something but for very different reasons.

The article has a paywall, but the headline is interesting.

more like you’re mad that we aren’t out of business yet. Mad about $500m “of your tax dollars” to help save an airline? Please … maybe you should find ways to reduce your tax bill - so it really sounds like a personal issue.

There it is. I knew that was coming. No, no one hates Spirit and wants it to die. 500M bailout with taxpayer dollars is absolute BS. NK C suite has proved they can’t fix this and the airline doesn't deserve to continue unless it can become profitable. If you don’t have a back up plan by now that’s on you at this point. That’s not lacking empathy that’s called reality.
