We should plan on making Ontario, Orange County and LAX all bases as well

Delving even further into this hurricane nonsense, has it occurred to you MCO and MIA are 200 some miles apart?
The low level of intelligence here.... I mean it borders on the scary side that you fly airplanes.

It works and makes money, but they’re not near big enough to try and compete with the other carriers outside there niche market.

There’s obviously much more that goes into the health of a company than just those metrics, but I’m just addressing the comparisons you mentioned. I’m not saying that Allegiant isn’t in a better position than a lot of other airlines, but you really need to step away from the koolaid. I think you may have OD’d and it might be time to induce vomiting and contact a poison control center immediately.

Stepped on a pop top
Cut my heel, had to cruise on back home
But there's booze in the blender
And soon it will render
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on
Wastin' away again in Margaritaville
Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
But I know, it's my own damn fault

Don't forget the lost verse, written for those pilots in white New Balance, with phone holsters on Caribbean layovers:
Old men in tank tops, cruising the gift shops.
Checking out the chiquitas down by the shore.
They dream about weight loss, wish they could be their own boss.
Those three day vacations become such a bore.
