Spirit Airlines’ Desperation Move

Spirit Airlines just made a drastic move – it’s selling 20 of its jets to Airbus. Yeah, you read that right. The airline’s so broke it’s practically giving away planes. But don’t worry, it’s not all doom and gloom. Some of the flight attendants who got furloughed last year are being recalled, which is a small win for them.

A Deal Born of Desperation

The deal with Airbus is a clear sign that Spirit Airlines is struggling to stay afloat. It’s not exactly a secret that the airline’s been on shaky ground, what with the whole bankruptcy thing looming over it. So, it’s not a huge surprise that they’re selling off some of their assets to try and stay in the air.
