S101, take it. My neighbor is a Spirit captain that was in the MEC in the last contract and they have the best deals. They pay like my major. Unfortunately for me

Fixed your post for you.

S101, take it. My neighbor is a Spirit captain that was in the MEC in the last contract and they have the best deals. They pay like the majors.

Only if your only criteria for pay equality is hourly rates. I made just over $160 in 2011 and my old friend over at SWA made just over $320. That's a long way from "they pay like the majors"

On the other hand, I'm not beotchin about pay. Haven't missed a paycheck in thirteen years.

PARIS (MarketWatch) -- European commercial aircraft builder Airbus said Wednesday that U.S. company Spirit Airlines Inc. has signed a purchase order for 75 of its A320 family of medium-haul airliners, firming up a memorandum of understanding that was announced at the Dubai air show in November.

The order includes 45 Airbus A320neo aircraft, which are more fuel-efficient versions of the A320, a workhorse of low-cost airlines.

On the basis of Airbus's most recent price list, the order is potentially worth $7 billion, but airlines typically negotiate deep discounts from the catalog price, especially on bulk orders. This can take the form of discounts on training, maintenance and other services.

Spirit will use its aircraft on its growing network in the U.S., Latin America and the Caribbean.

Airbus said Spirit hasn't decided on the engine selection for its new planes.

No, it's pretty sad you fell for Managements boogyman. They count on Pilots to believe their propaganda, it keeps them in power and the cash flow away from the likes of you.
