As far as captains at the LCC leaving, I know that one frontier guy did, but he had recall rights
I think its more likely the LCC's consolidate with each other. Many people think a Frontier and Spirit marriage is inevitable. JetBlue and Southwest has been floated before.
Others like Allegiant etc.. will simply just go out of business as I don't see their business model fitting in with anyone else. Allegiant would have to do the acquiring though if they were to merge.
