Or B.) The trend continues or increases. Planes get parked, captains are downgraded, growth comes to a screeching halt. Basically all the worst parts of the Bible.
lol Captains being downgraded. Now you are really fear-mongering.

come on dude...I’m the troll, not you.

You have been here a long long time and still, complain complain complain.

So which is it for why you haven't left? DUI? Busted rides? Alimony? Golden handcuffs? Because someone as angry as you appear to be would have left a while ago unless you are either unhirable or this is your schtick. Honest question, you have been here a long time, why are you still here and after all these years decide now "Time to vent my rage on a forum"

It’s the one question none of the detractors will answer honestly.

We are all in agreement we seek substantial improvements in the coming contract negotiations, but Clarence here has stated in no uncertain terms NK has neither the money nor the inclination to improve. In his opinion it’s an irredeemable airline on a collision course with failure…

And yet we are currently in the most upward and lateral hiring climate in decades. No one has to be anywhere they don’t want to be. If you’ve been here long enough to have been furloughed, you can even take the vesting with you.

I am here because I like my job and want to see it get even better.

Why are you still here Clarence?

Y'all have a few cheerleaders that say Spirit is the greatest thing ever, I'm surprised to see the doom and gloom. Thought that was reserved for AA.

Jokes aside, wish the best for all the pilot groups.

Fah I’m not the type of guy who complains without backing it up. I am trying to actively get out of here as soon as possible. I’ll have an update for you within 30 days partner hopefully I can move you up a number

So much BS, if you were here 10 years ago, you won't leave.

How’s the layout of trips at Spirit looking? I know a few months back Frontier has unfortunately moved the way of more day trips. I don’t mind picking up some day trips, but with commuting it’s not the most convenient.

Thanks for the help.

A vast majority of our flying is 3-4 day trips. We aren’t/haven’t gone the way of F9, thankfully.

One of the outliers is FLL. They have the most 1-2 day trips. They also still have tons of 3-4 days as well, but given the flying out of FLL to South America and Caribbean, a lot of those are day trip turns. Sometimes if it’s Deep South (for us) like Peru or Ecuador, those will be 2 day trips due to the length and flight times.
