In fact, IIRC the only three cities we do more departures per day out of (this July) are FLL, MCO, and LAS— and a big percentage of LAS flying is to support LAX. I heard from a good source that NK was considering a LAX crew base pre-covid, not BWI. I would bet that ANY additional gates in LAX would mean a crew base. I’m sure it’s expensive but so is X hotel rooms a night.
3. Apparently someone in the Allegiant training department is telling people there that ALGT has already bought spirit but can’t spill the beans because of the covid money
just some ideas

Parked at 51B in LAX the other day landing at 2300 with a RON. That's usually a Frontier gate right? With them pulling out of LAX, I can see it happening.
