I truly hope that Spirit survives and eventually thrives. I'm just genuinely curious what's in it for Frontier or anyone else for that matter?
There's no guarantee at all that any particular airline will be able to pick up any particular pieces (especially the pilots).
If F9 wants growth in a similar market, NK might make sense intact.
