No and I can't imagine Spirit ever spending money like that unless it is regulatory.

I think the pre merger plan was to have a dedicated server for the cockpit with access to WSI style weather, and get our paperwork.

Free WiFi post merger. Definitely worth at least 69% weighting in the SLI. Maybe even worth a full staple.

Hey everyone! I have a class date with Spirit in about 2 weeks.
I chose Spirit because I haven't gotten and will never get the Covid Vaccine, and Spirit doesn't care about it.
If JetBlue buys Spirit, what is the current policy regarding current employees not wanting to get the vaccine? I know they will not hire you if you haven't shown proof of vaccination but what if you are already on property? Thanks!

Of all the reasons I’ve ever heard of why folks chose their airline…

You’re also asking about a purely hypothetical which is multiple years away. I’d likely play it safe and go to Sun Country.

Wow. That is... offensively cheap. I don't think there's a single airline that charges its pilots for wifi.
