Gonna be using that listerine to sterilize your hind quarters if the company decides to take advantage of the weak scope section at some point. Any and all flying that contributes directly to spirit shareholder value must be done by spirit pilots. International code share now and future weakening of cabotage law could be deadly. You can have southwest or delta + infinity and it doesn't mean shiit if its spirit flt xxx operated by frontier, or Norwegian Air shuttle, or Azul, or Ryan Air.

Fair enough, codeshare protection would be a plus. Why do you feel our section one is so weak otherwise? I know of no scope clause industry wide that addresses 'shareholder value'. That could be an interesting area to explore, but it would need to be defined more precisely I imagine.

Manflex, the word Codeshare is what brought done YX, simple. We had it in our contract if there was a blue airplane the YX pilots flew it BUT the word CODESHARE wasn't in there and RAH came in an exploited it and the YX pilots were without a job!

Section 1.B.3 of the SPA CBA provides a start and some job protection for NK pilots. Strengthening it would certainly be a plus.

Spirit Airlines To Begin Service At MIA, Becoming Airport's Second Largest Carrier - exMiami
WOW!! Well, I guess it was only a matter of time. Way too much LCC competition in FLL, none in MIA, and we seem to do just fine up against AA in DFW.
