FOD is a huge problem in ATL. Rampers are not interested in picking anything up. They are under staffed and over worked.

EVERY single one of my friends says they would fly Frontier all the time if we operated better(on time, less cancellations, no 4hr delays every day) and had better customer service. They love everything about us. But between yanking people's money for bags willy nilly, gate agents who treat customers horrificly, no phone lines, canceled flights, and poor management of just everything, it is a mess.
If this place ran smoothly and the company just put a little more money upfront, our product would absolutely skyrocket. There is a reason Southwest is as big as they are, look what happened to them in recent years with their decline in their original "plan".

“America’s Greenest Airline” that doesn’t even recycle. If they could make more money by being the least green airline they would.

Hey watch your mouth. Tomorrow we get rid of paper releases. Saving the environment and getting sub 8 cent CASM. You’re welcome Mother Nature. You’ll see it in your upcoming profit sharing check.

Not necessarily disagree with you but the stuff this place needs to change is fairly easy. Increase staffing at ticket counters, gate counters, bellow the wing, etc. Stop with the bag price harassment.
Those are easy fixes. The things that are hard to get right for an airline like cost structure, we have nailed. We operate at a lower cost structure with more fuel efficiency than any airline in history. If Frontier could clean up the operation, Increase staffing levels, stop treating the passengers so poorly, and then increase ticket fares a little, we could make an absolute killing.
Will our current management team do these things? I have no idea. Maybe they need to be flushed and get fresh blood in the office. I don't know, but this place has so much potential! Our 321NEOs with 240 seats coupled with the lowest cost structure in the industry has the potential to be a serious power house. Easy fixes could be made. In the right hands, this place could kill

Frontiers looking to get the pax who fly once every few years and happen to see their nonstop going their way.
Legacy carriers are looking to attract much more repeat traffic and especially the highest payers with lounges, perks and other amenities.
That's what's funny when people complain about bag fees at legacies, only the seldom fliers (who'd consider Frontier flight) are the ones paying that. All the other pax either have status, the Ccard or paid a fare which makes the baggage fee void.
Even at the legacies, it's like taxes, whereas like 10% of the pax pay 75% of the revenue.

Interesting, do you work at F9? Because you hand out free advice and act like you work at United too..
