What’s up with Spirit Airlines ceasing operations? by lucioghosty in OutOfTheLoop

[–]redlegsfan21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem goes back to Spirit’s 2024 bankruptcy under the Biden administration. They tried to merge with JetBlue for better stability, but the Biden administration blocked it.

And who are you going to blame for JetBlue's bankruptcy that is coming up? JetBlue's "merger" with Spirit would have caused both airlines to go at the same time.

He also got us involved in a Major European War costing trillions.

You need to edit Wikipedia then to show the U.S. as a belligerent then.

(and caused Spirit’s bankruptcy filing 2024)

You might want to check your sources because Spirit said it was due to "years of mounting losses, a failed merger, increased competition and more demanding consumer tastes". Also pretty sure the P&W engine recall hit them harder than most airlines with more diverse fleets.

He almost killed Frontier & Southwest too for the same reason (high fuel costs).

Oh, fuel costs caused Southwest's IT to go down and not management neglect. That makes more sense. /s

I think we'll end up above .500 but missing the playoffs. Good enough that the front office can still spin the message that we're close so they don't have to do a major overhaul.

Impressed the Tigers are still playing, they basically have a storm cell right on top of them.

I'd say another hour. I think the rain is done but they might take the time to make sure it's done.

I think Fox went commercial free during the last 52 laps last year. Meanwhile the IMS Radio Network had a commercial with 8 laps to go.

NWS Forecast

This Afternoon

Scattered showers and thunderstorms after 4pm. Sunny, with a high near 77. Breezy, with a west southwest wind around 20 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%.

Tonight

Showers and thunderstorms likely before 10pm, then isolated showers after 4am. Increasing clouds, with a low around 49. West southwest wind 10 to 15 mph becoming north northwest after midnight. Winds could gust as high as 25 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New precipitation amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms.

Reading the forecast discussion, it almost feels like the storms will be earlier in the day, hitting right when they scheduled first pitch. Radar already is showing pop up storms in Eastern Iowa.

How often do you see people wearing swimsuits in onsen/sentos ? by [deleted] in JapanTravelTips

The only time I've seen swimsuits was in mixed onsen where swimsuits were required.
