The author of that article is obviously lazy and clueless. He includes Spirit in his list of airlines that are likely to do best surviving the crisis along with the the big three and Southwest. He singles out Frontier even though their business model is nearly identical to Spirit. Then for unexplained reasons says JetBlue will perform best in the next category. ..??
He fails to mention that in the previous downturns the airlines that did the best financially were the non-legacy lower cost carriers. Granted, some of the budget airlines that were not well established or lacked capital went out of business.
He just needed to fill a page, Frontier probably cancelled his family member's flight one time.
