I can't see how NK alone or with B6 could have a significant impact on F9.
F9 has about 115 planes, and 234 on order, We have 180 and plan to grow over 10% per year. Combined plan called for a fleet of 500 by 2026. Allegiant is a quarter of the size of frontier, without the growth plans. Don't you think bumping against each other was the reason for the NK-F9 merger???? And with us flying the JB way, they have the right side of the field open.
