I have doubts that fourth quarter would have erased the losses we took in quarters 1, 2, and 3.

No it’s supposed to be between 10-40M profit. We likely had a bunch of sale leasebacks that pushed us into positive territory. We will see what the forward momentum projection is.

For the whole year? Impressive honestly. They are very clearly gearing up for a big announcement. Seems everyone is projecting some good news for 2026, as bad as it's been for the ULCCs F9 has mostly treaded water. Hopefully new leadership turns things around.

Makes no sense. I say the base closings rumor is BS. I'd lead towards opening more bases than closing bases

I’m not buying it either. My predictions:

1. Displacement bid (prob. more than one) to realign the flying. Displacements from “good bases”.
2. More red eye flying.
3. More Tuesday/Wednesday (prob red eye) flying
4. More day turns. Less multi day turns.

those 4 things will be more than enough to “make some of you unhappy.”

ymmv
