And I hate to do this because I know quite a few really good fellas at Spirit, but for the few of you on Frontier’s forum waving your AIP (as if it were a TA) and try to measure your massive 112 aircraft fleet against our 78 aircraft fleet. Here’s a measuring contest for you. If I use the same math (1/2 of your currently flying fleet retired in 8 years and add the undelivered aircraft orders) the total sum of aircraft at Spirit in 2026 is 115 aircraft. Using the same math it is 240 aircraft at Frontier in 2026. And guess what, nobody here at F9 gives a damn if we’re twice the size of Spirit.
Add to that, your management recently said “it’s open to consolidation opportunities.” The writing is on the wall. If we’re all stuck here at our respective crap companies, there’s a great chance we’ll see the day they come to form one. So how about you stop the wiener measuring contests and join the rest of us in supporting each other’s contract fights.
