ALPA national is not there to defend your MEC's actions (which from the outside looks pretty undefendable anyway) and/or your corporates PR blunders and/or random press speculation as to why the Spirit "ULCC" model is failing under a summer stress test.
Instead, your MEC should be meeting to make sure the press gets it correct as to what's going on at Spirit, and like some other posters have said, all the extra flying done at 200% (like most every other airline) and get your negotiations back on fast track.
Blaming ALPA national for your situation is not really relevant.
BTW, ALPA national hasn't sent one piece of info for/against Delta TA, only DALPA MEC. That's the way it works.

Yes, you are absolutely correct. We have some very narrow minded morons here at Spirit. Thank you for breaking it down for them.

Anyone else moving back words when call scheduling? I thought they brought in extra help to man the phones.

Holy guacamole with a tub of macaroni, I spend the day at the lake and all hell has broken loose! What in h3ll is up with the union granting relief? I know I'm late to the party, but why are we caving on the cba? We better get some sort of bumper contract out of this but I'm not holding my breath. And for the record, my phone hasn't rung either.

So are each of us getting 200 shares of SAVE deposited in our 401(k)'s as compensation to help management recover from their self induced fiasco? Of course not!!! Enjoy your waived CBA in exchange for nothing.

One of my FAs asked a scheduler about that and was told you move backwards when scheduling calls out. Nothing nefarious going on just typical incompetence when dealing with technology.
