True.

but to be fair, I have some friends with access to Delta and United performance, theirs are also in the gutter, just not as bad as ours MOST of the time.

Just because they had record profits, doesn't mean their on time/cancellations/etc were perfect... Ours are way worse, but we can't act like the legacies are just immune to any issues we also deal with (ours just hurt more because of our poor ops in the first place)

At the end of the day, profits pays the light bill. Not the other way around. Flying a half-full airplane with "on time arrival" and "happy gate agents with a smile" is warm and fuzzy but means nothing if there is no profit.

According to the report, our on time arrival #s are below average. We are, at best, 7th out of 10. When you say not far behind...

ER is buying us. They’ll use frontier to secure jobs for all graduates and then say they have 100% job placement. Thus causing enrollment to skyrocket
