It was in a legacy forum (don’t remember which). They seemed to be 2-3 year guys tops. So not very senior from it seemed like, but I could be wrong.

And that is why they leave the legacy and come back to spirit, because they miss it so much!

Yup! Half the class were previous hires at NK!

Ok… so even by your own admission, not really a great data point. Looks like a UAL thread you’re referring to, and even there, most posts weren’t complaining.

If you re-read my post you’ll notice I say “line holders.”

Thats the one. I never said that they were complaining, just that that was the one thing they missed the most from the LCCs.

Again, I don’t blame them for moving on, but if that’s what they’re used too, it makes sense

Drop to zero is no different

No kidding. If 2018 and the 2022 TA proved anything it’s that we will sell out. Throw some $$ and a scare tactic or two at us and we will give it up faster than a Thai hooker. That’s just the way it is. Anyone who says otherwise hasn’t been paying attention the last 5 years. Drop to zero will be gonzo.
