Frontier is adding 2 (daily!) flights out of PHX. LAX and San Jose. Bringing PHX to 17 destinations.

Anyhow, I saw this quote from Shurz:

“We see tremendous growth opportunities for low-cost air travel in Phoenix and today’s expansion announcement provides significantly lower fares to key California markets,” Daniel Shurz, senior vice president of commercial for Frontier Airlines

Just to throw a little gas on the Phx rumor fire

It’s happening... I have bets on it... it has to happen now!!!!

It’d be good for all the bases... it’d open up so much movement... probably stop displacements from Denver... but as I said before, the pilots want it so it can’t happen!

SkyHarbor built 4 hardstands for you guys for your beloved ground boarding on the new Southside T-3 concourse. They can't be used until the people mover to rental car is complete.

I was in PHX yesterday and the pushback driver said “corporate” was there in the morning confirming a base. He also said 20 plus daily flights by summer. We also have about 5-6 F9 employed mechanics there in PHX vs contract maintenance. I believe they are leftover from when we had the heavy maintenance done at Goodyear airport.

I said this before in another thread. Last month a mechanic told me they were in the process of making PHX a class 2 maintenance facility, and expect 5 RON aircraft in the near future. All of our pilot domiciles are class 2 facilities (according to him).
