Executives say several contingency plans are ready, with Fort Lauderdale at the center.

The carrier said late last year that it was considering a merger or sale.

The pilots union warned that a shutdown would be disastrous for the airline’s employees and for Florida.

The ultra-low-cost carriers are again at the negotiating table after failed talks in 2022, 2024, and earlier this year.

Some funding will be conditioned on the carrier’s progress in restructuring, or reaching a “strategic transaction.”

The carrier will reach a critical bankruptcy milestone on Saturday.

The struggling ultra-low-cost airline expects to save about $100 million per year through the contract modification.

The temporary dismissals were supposed to take effect at the end of January.

Despite its bankruptcy, the ultra-low-cost carrier is continuing to build connections between South Florida, Central America, and the Caribbean.
