Airline Maniac

In the next two months, Spirit Airlines could be making gigantic cuts. When I say gigantic, I mean GIGANTIC! Up to 60% of the airline’s flight attendants and 45% of the airline’s pilots could be given the unemployment notice. According to a report that Spirit sent to union leaders, bases in New York, San Juan, and Detroit will be eliminated. Spirit also plans to downsize their Fort Lauderdale base. The cuts have been blamed on the rising cost of jet-fuel.

It is unknown whether Spirit will keep it’s order for Airbus aircraft at this time. By the looks of it, most analysts would say no.
