I dont think the company would do any of this, being historically staunchly anti-national advertising, and none of this matters anyway if the 2020 loyalty bonds remain due in 13 months and with no end to falling revenue and net losses in sight. PRNewswire is not advertising. Commercials on during NFL football games is advertising.

Then they have to ensure the integrity of routes and fleet, and im not sure how they plan to do that down 70 aircraft in just a few months?

I believe they waited way too long to adapt. Everyone working the line could tell the ulcc model was failing back in 2022. Oops.
