A large number of leisure flyers are hyper focused on the cheapest fare, good luck UA and WN getting your fares cheaper than ours.

Now if a family is going to be bringing a bunch of bags, then WN might be close enough in price to where the family will book WN. But when the Allegiant ticket costs 30% of the WN ticket, good luck getting people to line up in the cattle call for a couple of free bags. Allegiant's model has been working for a reason. If Allegiant has some rough years it won't be because of the legacies and WN, it will be from Breeze, Frontier and to a lesser extent Avelo.
