They got 400 million for a ball room but not 500 million for 90% of ownership

A ballroom was more important than an economical way of travel for millions & 17k employees

We all joke about Spirit, but they got us where we needed to be for the best price.

Credit where credit is due. They’d rather go out of business than to take Trump‘s money. there’s gotta be something admirable said about that.

They didn’t just get laid off. Flight attendants and other pilots were just stranded wherever they were working and had to find a way home without flight benefits. Maybe their most recent paychecks might not even be valid. Praying for the spirit employees and their families.
