Spirit is making the most $$ than any airline in the USA. The pay needs to come up and we need to keep our work rules. Why give up the Farm and negate the hard fought gains this Union fought for? Keep the work rules and bring the pay up to Parity on DOS!!

Honestly I'm not willing to give up anything. There doesn't need to be any concessions made, not for a company that has increased its amount of revenue at the rate that it has and will continue to do so. We need to be compensated for that for our input to the performance this company has achieved.

Nice puff piece for jetBlew in the Miami Herald today. Anyone else see an NK b1tch-slapp from the FLL airport director?

JetBlue ramps up in Fort Lauderdale | Miami Herald Miami Herald

Broward County aviation director Kent George said that the airline’s growth is “extremely good news” for the community, which has responded well to JetBlue’s offerings.
“They’re a wonderful carrier,” he said. “They provide a wonderful product and they’ve really filled a niche in the community with great service — and that service includes customer service too.”

Spirit has a long way to go before we deserve that kind of compliment, if that is even the goal. What kind of incentive do the customer service people have to provide good service, since they are mostly just underpaid outsourced employees with no benefits or "ownership" stake in NK? Very few of them seem happy at work or even act like they care about the customers.

Customer service is jetBlue's bread and butter, they do a great job of it and have built a nice loyalty base for themselves. Somebody is paying for all of those blue snacks, TV, and WiFi, even if people like to think of it as "free".

+1. They run a very good airline and are profitable all while paying their employees reasonable wages.
