Congrats from Fedex pilots. I hope your negotiators have double checked and triple checked the details of your TA to avoid "buyers remorse". Regarding your mgt pilots who, "took a bullet" rather than scab. Make sure they're made whole. Its a lot better to have saved these guys and have them forever grateful for doing so, than to give future CP's reason to fear/hate/loathe your group into the future.

Well management is rushing to get the word out..I just got this in an email: We're ready for take off - jump on board!Spirit Airlines is pleased to announce that we're flying again with flights resuming Friday, June 18. We've reached a tentative agreement with our pilots that allows us to be successful for years to come and achieve our mission of continuing to bring you ultra low fares.
What a sorry admission of management failure!
Evidently this strike was unnecessary!
Time for heads to roll upstairs.
Evidently the pilots were attempting to bargain in good faith all along expecting nothing more than a non airline-busting, fair and equitable contract.
Shame on management. Shame on them!

WELL DONE SPIRIT PILOTS!!!!!!
Congrats from a freightdog to all involved for holding the line and not caving in to the concession monster in the guise of saving jobs for a select few.
You've done your group, and your union proud.

Now we have to find out which bonehead decided to furlough ALL of the Flight Attendants, the day before the TA! Now, per their CBA, they have to get an official 'recall' notice, and from that point they have two weeks to report back!
YOUR RECALL RIGHTS AND WHAT TO DO
The company CANNOT "rescind" a furlough notice. The notices were sent to all flight attendants. The company MUST follow the recall procedure as outlined in Section 16.C.1.2.3 (and they are not). This is a blatant and direct violation of our contract. We are asking ALL flight attendants to follow the procedures for recall that are in the contract.
The following are some guidelines to follow should you be contacted or are scheduled to work:
If you receive a call and have not received your Recall Notice yet, politely tell whoever is calling you that you have not received your notice and will call, once you receive your notice as required per the contract. Section 16.C.2, page 86.
You are not required to answer or return call from the company until you receive your Recall Notice.
If you have received your Recall Notice you are required to contact the In-flight department within seven (7) days of receiving the notice. Section 16.C.2, page 86.
When you call the In-flight department you may return to work within fifteen (15) days of receiving the Recall Notice. Section 16.C.2, page 86.
You also have the right to return to work at any time within the fifteen (15) day period. It is your choice.
Should you have trips on your schedule and have not received the Recall Notice, don't worry. You have not been notified of a Recall by a written notice sent to your address. You are not obligated to work until you receive the written Recall Notice.
DO NOT ALLOW yourself to be intimated by the company. Again, they are telling you that they are doing this so you will make money. They are doing this so they can get back to making millions off our backs. Don't be fooled!
Should you feel that you are being treated unfairly or may be intimidated, be polite end the call and call your local representative with all the information (date, time and who you spoke with).
You are pay protected for your line in June. We may have to fight for this one because the company thinks differently. Rest assured we are on it!
This is the last one. As always, you have the right to go back to work as you choose.
The company has failed again, to follow the contract to the letter and this will not be tolerated. We need your support by following the contract as outlined above. All of us MUST follow the contract.
This will send a loud & clear message: We will not be cajoled into coming back to work and violate our contract for the sake of money!
Stick together. Help one another. Support each other and we will prevail!

So the management team thought they'd be cute and use the FA's as negotiations fodder by furloughing all of the FA's and now they're gonna eat a poop-sandwhich for doing so. I hope each and every one of the pilots now support the FA's, as the FA's supported the pilots. Not a single FA should return to work without following their contract.
