Frontier is an inferior airline in just about every aspect. They're basically Spirit three years ago. I don't know if Indigo has any interest in improving the airline the way our board did but I would imagine they'll have to to remain competitive as our routes will inevitably begin to overlap more.
I think you'll upgrade at F9 faster but Indigo being my boss would give me pause. Congrats on the offers from both. You're in an good position.
Thanks for that good info. The fact that Frontier is where spirit was 3 years ago is what makes it attractive to me. I know it’s a gamble but if they make the same steps spirit has I’d be sitting real pretty there in 3 years. However right now Spirit is way more stable.
