Default Franke’s recent speech at CAPA Masterclass
https://centreforaviation.com/analys...-placed-525409

An interesting read from CAPA’s Masterclass, with guest speaker Bill Franke. I found this quote from Franke the most fascinating. Although it could be negative for us, I believe it’s more likely to be neutral or positive for Frontier. If they come out guns blazing this fall and capture market share, we could see the need for more aircraft than we currently have on order. I acknowledge his comments are in regards to the 2023 aircraft order and I am being very optimistic.

From the article:

“In 2017 Indigo placed a massive order with Airbus for 430 narrowbody aircraft, for operation across its four airlines. Mr Franke remarked that delivery of those aircraft would not start until mid-2023, and Indigo has flexibility to move the aircraft around airlines in its portfolio.”
