Might I ask, to which job fair you are referring? I thought the next fair Spirit was attending was Nov 7 in FLL.

This is correct, for students and alumni. I am helping recruit for my current regional airline along with being alumni so I will be there. Usually not a ton of people there, but I would not be surprised the way the job market is to see a lot of alumni there.

Not that you will be an F/O until year 4 but I broke $100K without trying too hard. The work rules are better than the pay. I get pay protected for transition conflicts and double dip by picking up premium pay. If you get a 200% JRM on transition it amounts to triple time. Lots of premium pay opportunities if you are flexible and living in base helps a lot. Never less than 100 hours credit as an F/O even when I was on reserve. Don't let the pay rates fool you. I have 82 hours block and 174 hours credit last month.

Hey all,
New to the thread, but I'm very interested in Spirit and am curious how competitive I am, and what kind of time frame is typical from phone interview to class date (assuming no hiccups, and none of which I am taking for granted!)? I'm an Eagle captain on the CRJ, with about 7,600 TT/850 TPIC, and have several internals, BUT I've never been able to make a job fair.
I'd love a DFW base, and am looking to stay at Spirit indefinitely. I have looked at the legacies, and don't like what I see. For me, its all about the culture, and being able to drive to work is a big bonus. If I wanted the big legacy, I'd just flow to AA, but from what I've read on here, and talking to my friends, the 'vibe' at Spirit is excellent, and that speaks volumes.
