Well... good questions for someone that knows a lot more that I. From the hearings that I have, new BOD of the airport has many gates available at a price we really can't refuse with huge opportunity for our new business model. With all the changes it would makes sense to re-enter this market. As I see it, we are an entirely new business model... Not anything what we were when Frontier was there previously. I foresee (and remember my previous warning that I am not in the know. I am not a smart man Jennay...) us having a base in COS and DEN as we cannot leave the DEN market and fully operate only in COS. I could see this easily getting pilots out of DEN and opening opportunities out of both airports without hurting the operation in both markets. This, being the entire Denver area, is one of the fastest growing areas in the entire country.
I personally have such a hard time believing a huge commitment like a base in CLE right now. We need to get our "ULCC" model perfected before attempting to go head to head there with Spirit entirely. At least now, we can do it, see if it works and then attack it when we have all our ducks in a row. I see the East coast base somewhere else, like where the previous posts were mentioning.
Whew... all this speculation has made my dead dizzy.... I LOVE THIS JOB!!!! Me... I am putting a down payment on a house in Aruba.... we will have a base there in four months anyways.
