We also are highly unlikely to "figure it out." We will continue to do what we've been doing. How the market changes will be the interesting thing to see. As the economy continues to evolve, inflation seems to remain stubborn, cost of living doesn't decrease, etc. Frontier will either have to move more upmarket or the market moves back to us. I don't know what happens but either the business will evolve or the market will devolve back to us.
And a few years ago, Spirit was sitting on just over 1B in cash in the bank. Not exactly the best metric to use in this case.

Of course, ANY airline that has 1/2 the fleet go unflyable all of the sudden will NEVER have enough cash...

It’s not like that 1B dollars just got up and walked away.

little bit more to that story don’t you think? I’ll let you explain it. I’ll help you tho.

Start with the COVID lockdowns in 2020 and go from there. Everyone will wait for your response.

Nothing to explain, don't look too deep into what I said. Other guy made a blanket statement, so did I.

No more sunshades?

Without them, cockpit temperatures are likely to become dangerously high, especially during summer operations.

This change will almost certainly lead to increased APU usage and higher fuel costs. Additionally, in the event of an APU MEL, many aircraft may be unable to cool adequately using only ground air, potentially resulting in delays or cancellations.

We operate in a lot of in hot weather bases like LAS, PHX, MCO, and SJU.

P&W pays the leases on those planes parked.

Ever notice Spirit is in no rush to get those engines turned around.

I had seen credits from P&W but I didn’t see comping the leases. Not in a position to look currently.
