Fellow Spirit ALPA Pilots,

The Company has issued payment for the remaining compensation for work performed in April and May. This payment included a few errors that will be addressed in this communication, as well as what steps are being taken to remedy those errors. In this communication, we also intend to outline how we believe the Company determined what compensation was still to be paid, and how that compensation should appear within your UKG pay statement.

The errors that have already been identified with the payroll that was sent out include anything located in the JA200% column (e.g. JRX, JRY, CAP, etc.) of the pay report was only paid at 100%, and the April Airbus Override was calculated incorrectly. The Company is issuing additional checks to cover the 100% missed from the premium assignments and the incorrectly calculated Airbus Override. The Company has told us to anticipate the funds for that missed credit to be paid by Friday, May 29.

We would like to remind you of the basics of our pay system. Our guarantees are paid in advance before the Company knows how many hours we are actually going to credit. Assuming you were an active payroll employee for the month of April, you were paid 36 hours on April 15, and 36 hours on April 30. This totals your 72-hour guarantee. This means you have already been paid 72 hours for the month of April. Anything in excess of 72 hours credit is what remained to be paid to you from the April pay period.

The outstanding pay that remained was anything in excess of 72 hours from April, Airbus Override, International Override, Instructor Override, Drug & Alcohol Tests, Hotel Buybacks, Per Diem, Night Override, and any other Retro payments that were still outstanding. Any items that contained dollar amounts were listed on their own line of the paystub as normal (Instructor Override, Hotel Buyback, Per Diem, Night Override, and Retro Pay). All items that contained credit hours, were combined and listed as one total on the “Regular” line (Overtime, Junior Pay, Airbus Override, International Override, and Drug & Alcohol Tests). Again, the Company has identified errors in the Junior Pay and Airbus portion of this calculation.

To determine the accuracy of the credit portion (Regular) of this payment, while still recognizing the errors identified, you are going to need to make some calculations. From the April pay report, you will need to combine the “Overtime Pay” line, half of the “Junior Pay” line, “Int Pay” line, and any “Drug/Alc Test.” The April Airbus Override was supposed to be paid at 4% but was actually paid at 0.4%. To determine what was actually calculated for this payment, you will need to multiply your “Total Pay” number by 0.004 and add that result to the figure you got from the four items above. If you worked in May, you will need to add the credit earned on 5/1 and 5/2 (unused RAPs credited four hours) and the Airbus Override of 4.3% on that credit to the previous total you found from April. Finally, if you had a “Base Reduction” (found on your pay report), or you already had a payment plan set up with the Company for money owed, you need to subtract that number from the total that you reached. The number you arrive at should equal the number listed on the “Regular” line of the May 22 paystub.

We want to reiterate that the Company is in the process of requesting additional paychecks for the missing April Airbus Override and the missing 100% of premium pay (this does not affect any of the critical coverage pay over Easter, as that was already included in the regular pay). The Crewpay Committee no longer has access to ANY of your schedule or pay information. You will need to use the pay reports you downloaded.

If you have completed the calculation provided, and you still believe that you have identified an error in your pay, please file an NCC, and then send a DART to the Crewpay Committee.

In Unity,

SPA Custodian Team
