NK business model is the "ultra low cost carrier" 28 seat pitch, slap stickers like a Vegas cab and cram in the cattle.
AMR bussiness model is the bussiness contracts
This list is likely to show all options are currently being explored but the merging partner(s) have likley been decided.

This deal was discussed 2 years ago! What debt does Frontier come with when compared to aquiring new 319's and 321's from Airbus (heavily discounted). Frontier has something like 70 airplanes, how long would it take to rebrand these airplanes compared on taking new deliveries that wont need heavy maintenance for a while! How about the S80 pilots, how does the SLI will look, are the Airbus F9 guys oing to be able to bid other equipment and thus minimizing the gains of havig crews already trained on the Airbus how about relocating the crews since AMR likely would close all the F9 bases! The benefits might not be there for this merger and AA would likely loose most control over their feed and they might not want this!
