It's fun to speculate. We all do it. Human nature. But the truth is we cannot control what spirit does or does not do to itself anymore than the pilots at air tran could. As always, we are along for the ride.

Maybe he can come up with some "good stuff" every 7 days and call it, "Tip of the Weak"?

We've had this same rumor at Allegiant for over a year now.

Is Xtra airways doing flying for you guys? I was in LGA yesterday and saw a Xtra 737 and it sounded like they were using the "spirit wings" callsign.

Yes, xtra is doing some flying for us. I almost put them down in the TOTD post. I was in ACY Fri evening and the xtra pilot berated our ops lady because he had a long delay going to LGA... I could go on about how he mentioned he's been doing this since 1997... But I won't...

Was the company given temporary scope relief to do this while they wait for a/c deliveries or what?

Not sure. I do know we have multiple A/C down while they implement our seat mx program...

They are allowed "90 days per occurrence" as long as there are no furloughs due to contracting out the flying

You know JustTheCole, for someone who constantly beatches about our concessionary contract, it boggles me that you don't realize that Pref Bidding would be a concessionary move by this pilot group...

I'm glad your on your own double secret DBB. (Douche Bag Board)
