I'm not saying you're wrong, but everyone at Frontier still remembers our Christmas 2016 meltdown. It's still like PTSD for a lot of guys. It was ugly. Guys were afraid to walk through the airport in uniform

No. I think executives learned from the JetBlue Valentines Day Masacre of… when was it? 2007? They booted Neeleman after that one.

They’ll deflect and shift blame to anything they can to avoid taking personal responsibility as a desperate act of self preservation.

Can we just rehire Gary Kelly so we can immediately fire his sorry a$$? This is the obvious result of treating this operation like the C Suites personal slush fund for the better part of two decades.

Impartial observer, nothing against SWA whatsoever... but life sentence on a guppy and long upgrades, vs. airbus, widebodies and unfilled CA vacancies? Go to UAL.

Especially with domicile being the same.

In general, yes, But this is bad, and sounds like a lot of unforced errors. This is not a niche commuter airline, or an old-style regional legacy.

This too shall pass, but it's bad.

Yikes, y’all up to 2800 cancels, 68% with still some hours to go and over 1,200, 30% already for tomorrow. Never seen a CF like this since the B6 meltdown.
