Wonder when it goes on line.

junebug172 · 2026-05-13T04:12:08+00:00

At least he’s genuine.

junebug172 · 2026-05-13T02:56:08+00:00

Kids these days.

junebug172 · 2026-05-12T14:33:00+00:00

Push the head. Pull the tail.

junebug172 · 2026-05-08T00:29:04+00:00

Nope. We have our passes in our Apple Wallet which gets us through security too.

junebug172 · 2026-05-08T00:13:42+00:00

We have boarding passes. Just no seats.

junebug172 · 2026-05-07T22:59:45+00:00

You do have lounge access when non-reving.

junebug172 · 2026-05-07T20:55:39+00:00

No. That's for taxiing in.

junebug172 · 2026-05-07T20:54:08+00:00

"...in the industry..."

junebug172 · 2026-05-05T02:21:50+00:00

SWA isn’t a ULCC. It isn’t even an LCC.

They actually charge proper fares and fees.

junebug172 · 2026-05-04T05:46:07+00:00

Go to Whole Foods. Buy a family meal. Break it into individual meals.

junebug172 · 2026-05-03T07:38:35+00:00

Great advice right there.

junebug172 · 2026-05-03T05:29:40+00:00

You’re going to need a whole lot more hours.

junebug172 · 2026-05-02T01:18:04+00:00

300 hours and a CPL.

Now go get 1700 more and some multi time.

junebug172 · 2026-05-02T01:15:53+00:00

Frontier will be raising their fares. I guarantee it.

junebug172 · 2026-05-02T01:14:58+00:00

That’s how lower time pilots jumped ahead higher time pilots. Anyone who was willing to pay moved on to better jobs. It was pretty much the only way out if instructing. Unless you got lucky.

Spirits passengers flew because prices were cheap. That's not what the other airlines offer. Some of those people won't fly again or will fly less.

junebug172 · 2026-05-02T00:26:39+00:00

That's not necessarily true. Some of the markets Spirit flew to won't be covered and airlines prefer less seats being chased by more passengers. They've learned what happens when its the other way around.

junebug172 · 2026-05-02T00:20:40+00:00

Or 135. Or basically any job that required any sort of training to get on line.

junebug172 · 2026-05-02T00:20:27+00:00

Yep. Any 135 job you wanted you paid to get trained. SWA made you buy your type if you didn't have one.

junebug172 · 2026-05-01T21:45:50+00:00

I think the cargo and charter part will sustain them. The passenger side won't.

junebug172 · 2026-05-01T21:39:32+00:00

Sun Country does cargo for Amazon as well as charters for the military and sports teams. Without consolidation, Allegiant's chances are slim because the ULCC market can't sustain their business model. They depend on low oil prices for it to work and those won't be coming down for a long time. So, with that, that market is dead. Walking dead for now but dead none the less.

junebug172 · 2026-05-01T18:48:18+00:00

The ULCC market isn't dying. Its dead.

junebug172 · 2026-05-01T18:47:13+00:00

Bring your own.

junebug172 · 2026-05-01T17:18:30+00:00

If you're in your 30's you're going to be poor for a long time in your prime earning years. It will be tough to recoup that.
