Unfortunately, I don't think that Spirit has quite reached that "too big to fail" status.
Also Florida is a swing state about as much as Illinois!! If Biden (or a Democrat to be named later) wins Florida then you don't need to stay up for the rest of the results because he (or she) has won the whole thing. A bailout/assistance from the government wouldn't move the needle much at all in Florida, definitely not enough to change the state outcome,
The nationwide effect isn't big enough to get government intervention and the political effect on the state isn't big enough to get government intervention, so I dont think any help on that front is coming
