SWA searching for more deals, SWAPA salivating----article

Just learned that WN is looking to Spirit as their next acquisition by January.
I have several friends in DTW and they're saying "all aboard" for any offer from Wn.
They're practically giddy over this rumor.

Since Spirit is profitable, and has been around longer than Frontier, SW would have to offer seat protection, domicile protection, and relative seniority for starters.

But Spirit offers more international routes than Frontier.

Is Spirit hiring? I'd like to leave Southwest and come work for them. Sounds like great career advancement.

Simple, THEN DON'T BUY THEM. IDIOT, if you can't afford the price.

Why are you calling me an idiot? I just said I'd like to leave SW and come fly for Spirit. Or did my statement sound THAT ridiculous??

You might actually get lucky and get the option of working at spirits Air Jamaica subsidiary to be. Oh wait, I meant, the "Spirit Of Jamaica" subsidiary to be. You can get someone's job from original JM and be based in beautiful montego bay, jamaica flying the A-321. Could life get any better? LOL!

AAI is profitable in every quarter this year with a projected record profit for the year. Bankruptcy isn't in our cards.

I glad you're so proud of your airline. How's that contract coming?

Just as ridiculous as a Delta Captain saying that he wanted to leave to start over at Northwest.

But less ridiculous than demanding to staple an airline that flies larger aircraft, with international routes.

Coming along nicely, actually. Nine sections TA'd this year so far. I wouldn't be surprised to see a deal by January or so.

Is spirit in Ch 11?

No way

The F9 deal says it all....

If you think the F9 in re-organization was tough....try a solid company making money with fantastic market share...There would be blood all over Atlanta as the Airtran pilots fight SWAPA for equality.

Perhaps once upon a time, but I wouldn't bet on it today.
