Frontier is too unstable and apparently a long upgrade, Allegiant who knows whats going on there, so its really Spirit. I don't think anyone considers SouthWest a LCC.

This line of thought isn't exclusive to SkyWest, as much as people think we drink the KoolAid with special sweeter were all just looking to get the best QOL.
