They’re not targeting Frontier, they’re aggressively chasing every available dollar of revenue. They’ve found that by offering a limited number of BE seats that they can capture revenue from a seat that would have otherwise been empty. Once people show up they see all of the available upgrades, inflight entertainment, “free drinks”, mileage programs, frequent flights, and a much larger route network. Those people frequently turn into repeat customers who often times come back and buy economy plus seats.

they already answered some of these during the town hall last week.
WiFi by the end of 2027
first class starting to arrive fall 2026.
going to take whatever spirit slots they can.
no contract timeline
Atlanta is being worked on. Attempting to buy spirit gates in one area. To consolidate. Also plan on getting in house gate agents according to lotter in Atlanta.
aqp is likely to be implemented late in the fall.
there you go. As of last week this is my 98% accuracy.

real issues though.
spirit had big comfy seat. WiFi.
they couldn’t turn a profit.
they had better customer service. Couldn’t turn a profit.
had the same gates we are likely to get.
couldn’t turn a profit.
this model doesn’t work.
you cannot compete with the BE with the route of the legacies.
we have such an uphill battle ahead of us. Even a cultural change of rallying behind frontier won’t work.
our product is undesirable.
make a better product not just doing what spirit did.
spoiler alert. It failed.

Had they not had engine problems (or had we merged with them and taken THEIR CEO), they’d still be operating.
