ACY

DFW
LAS

Thanks in advance
DFW is adding FO's at a snails pace. Although ACY seems to be hot right now. LAS and ORD seem to be more productive as well.

The above is accurate. I had my build up line after OE (ORD), one month of reserve in ORD, then was awarded DFW for the start of the third month on the line.

Has anybody actually had to even go to ACY or are you referring to the 2 months while you're in training being virtually based there?

You mean the rumors founded on nothing? We never know and will never know base openings until the day they are announced. Like MSP two years ago, ATL and IAH last year age now LAX this year. Pure rumor.

Oh and my favorite SEA. We don't even serve it yet.

Yes, guys are seeing ACY again. Not just on paper.

So ACY is junior and easy to get?

What does take home pay (per 2 weeks and single medical) look like after deductions for 1st and 2nd year.

If you're coming here start saving now. And I mean yesterday.
Wow! They sure are happy to have people show up to make that kind of money. I hope you guys can follow suite and increase first year pay with the next contract. Most people going to work at Spirit are over "paying their dues", or so I thought

It's a known problem and one they're apparently working on. Although, considering the IT quality around these parts, you may retire before it's fixed.

Yep, it's pathetic l! I have no clue why guys are dying to come here.. Stay at your regional and wait for a legacy or JB/VA to call.
