Not trying to stir the pot but look at it objectively…… business plan support that idea ? How about the quality of MGT to someday get there with a different business plan (ULCC isn’t the way) ? I have my doubts…

IMO when F9 lost its unique appeal and hopes of being a market disruptor is when they filed CH 11. That set off a downward chain of events that ended up with the current Indigo situation. At the time of the acquisition it seemed like a perfect situation long term with the merger of SPA and F9 being the end game.

The market has shifted away from that business model and may shift back in time but does the company have enough cash to weather that storm with the Board and CEO they have in place now ?

Get all you can in Section 6 but you will never surpass Legacy contracts - that’s just my opinion.

That being said I will be walking in circles with y’all when you need it.
