Airbus are pointless to own. They build these things with term limits. They're not Boeings that have the potential to take on a whole other life when a pax carrier is done with them. Airbus' head to the scrap yard.
What's attractive is up front incentives negotiated/offered by Airbus to take deliveries, then attractive lease terms with a solid order book. The lease payments are just a cost of doing business.
The delivery schedule and fleet count numbers by years end including givebacks is 72 birds. 8.5 to 9 pilots per bird.

Who needs gate space? Frontier has a new plan for snow events or tarmac delay! Taxi the airplane under the A-bridge and unload passengers using stairs onto the icy ramp! Genius!
How they ever got this approved is beyond me. Maybe that's just the first half of the plan. Now if they can get the city to approve the reverse process for boarding passengers, we can have 'drive through' service and won't need any gates!!

But hey, if that's what they want to do, paint a taxi line and stage a ground crew and let's watch the clown show commence...
