He needs no clearance, no logbook, no FO, and no paychk, all goes to charity.

ATC doesn't terminate Chuck's radar service, Chuck terminates theirs.

And birds just bounce off of Norris' airplane.

From the COO. Take it for what it is. I am just the messenger.

- Current bidding war to get one more ORD gate. If we do get it, ORD will become a base.

- More A321s will come on property in the near future for specific routes like LGA.

- Trying to get the board approve the 'future purchase' of heavier airframes. Strong desire to go further South. Brazil was discussed.

- Trying to 'upgrade' engines on existing fleet with A319 getting A320 engine rating, and A320 getting A321 engine rating.

19's with 21 motors and 320's w/ 330 motivators would be much more better:D

I hope I'm wrong but if ORD comes, logically DTW would go away.

From what Airbus is saying the 321NEO will have 757 performance. That would easily make deep into South America from FLL and DFW. We wouldn't see those for awhile though.

Any of the menus that would show your current monthly schedule, on the left hand side, when you click to look at a paring, it takes WAY too long to upload, but not the open time parings.

??

Thanks
If you click on refrigerator list your schedule will load quickly in a new window and you can scroll to see each pairing. Then close the window.

He didn't specify type of aircraft but talked a lot about Brazil and how well we would do as a low cost carrier there.

Curious as to why DTW would go away, is there not enough demand in DTW for Spirit to maintain a base if ORD comes to fruition?

Also, pretty exciting about increasing reach into South America. With the Confederations Cup, the World Cup and the Olympics, Brazil stands to dramatically increase their visibility on a world stage.

I've thought for a while now that we will eventually end up with a bunch of 321neo's. They fit right into our business model.

Yep, having the same problem. The pairing eventually loads; but it takes a stupid long time to do so.
