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?
What makes you think Frontier could get any of the airplanes if they went back on the market? 87 just did. Did frontier grab any? Pilots? I’d bet you almost none of them would go to frontier at least not for any length of time. If frontier wants pieces of Spirit they have to buy the cow.
