You said it perfect Kingjay, and the more 'individiuals' we can get to believe this, the better we will be.

put your crack pipe down and the sour grape cool aid. Ben, go back to playing your board games with Berry. If you are thinking that NK is number one at FLL then it must be in customer complaints.
Kingray, do you get charged for water, soda, coffee, snacks on other carriers like you do on NK when you comute? Doesn't NK stuffs 145 pax in their 319's and 218 in their 321's, must be comfortable or at least snug in those clean new bus's once the roaches leave you alone.
From what I've heard Spirit is nothing more then a tax shelter for some rich jewish business men; Doen't JO and Franke have their hands in NK's affairs?

NK has been #1 in passengers carried at Ft. Lauderdale for some time now.
They non-rev on other carriers mostly because the Spirit flights are full.
Sounds like somebody got turned down. Put down the pipe and re-apply in six months.

Full Spirit flights were never a factor in my mind as I knew I was virtually guaranteed the jumpseat if need be.

Who cares who owns the company, as long as they pay every 2 weeks, and the planes are full. I'm furlough from this co. and can't wait to get call to get back to work. I come from a Large eRJ farm, and after 6 yrs I have not regrets of leaving them. Have you ever turn right instead of left in a commercial airplane, my guess is Yes.
So to say that NKS is the only Co. with dirty Airplanes is a little narrow, open your eyes a bit more.
Not a personal attack to you, just how I see things.

In a way it gives me a good feeling to know that I work for the airline that started it all (in the USA) not the last one to change to it. I am here for a paycheck, not a medal for flying an empty airplane with the best service. We are Americans...we want it now, and we want it cheap.

I can only speak of personal experience from when I briefly commuted out of FLL. I regularly walked over to the SW and JB terminal to commute home on them rather than fly Spirit because I knew they would be reliable and friendly. They didn't view me as just another pain in the ass, but greeted me with a smile even though I was not a paying customer.
Full Spirit flights were never a factor in my mind as I knew I was virtually guaranteed the jumpseat if need be.

Goldengoose, all I can say is not for long buddy not for long. You must be mgmnt?
Kingray, you never answered the question about having to purchase something while you nonrev on your own company? You know the answer dude
so please tell?????? By the way, what is the deal with your fa's uniforms or lack of?Never applied nor do I want to be part of that winning team for the race to the bottom. I'm sure you will have a industry leading contract soon.
Congrats guys, the way you answered my questions say it all
Hang in there it can only get better, if you survive? How many ac's are you down too?BTW how is that law suite coming?
Cheers

I don't believe you mean well to us, spirit pilots, it comes across as very cocky and immature.
As an experience pilot on the industry you do know that THIS is a very small industry, everything comes back around, pointing your finger at us, 3 point back at you.
I wish your career never has to see furloughs, bankrupt Co., or any other misfortune.
