You are way off base. An airline like Spirit sucks more ALPA resources than we contribute in dues. The big dues payers like Delta and Fedex put in far more than they extract.
Yes, I'm a Spirit captain and yes I would like to have the door hit me on the way out to Delta or United.

Is that like me wishing I won't the lottery (but never buy tickets?), or are you actively applying and trying to leave here?

Heard around the FLL campus today that six NK pilots have quit for greener pastures. IMHO if you're under 40 you should be actively looking at this point in the hiring wave at the legacies.

Quit just today? Or is this over a period of time? In my experience, the pastures are usually greener because they shovel a lot more manure over them.

I don't agree with any of those guys helping the company and it should have ended as soon as our relief was done, but as far as getting hired at another Alpa company, give me a break dude.
Tell that to the scabs that have seem to have found their way back into the ranks at other places.

I have said this also. If you are in your 20's or 30's, you are doing yourself and your family a disservice by not at least trying to get hired at American or Delta. Don't let a decade go by and wish you would have.

I'd be willing to bet this is completely untrue the way it implies. I think there have been six since January

I'm in the low 700's and moved up 5 spots from vacancy 15-05 to 15-06. Not sure, but I don't think we had five retire in the past month.

That is a stupid, baseless thing to say.
