Default What's going on with Frontier?

What is Republic's plan for Frontier? They closed the MKE crew base and opened one at ORD. Selling or spinning off?

I think they will keep plugging along until they merg with someone. It is a good brand with value, but who would they fit in with? I don't have that answer.

Frontier has also starting operating out of Trenton, NJ with flights to Florida and also New Orleans. They are also expanding their routes within the next month.

I was in Trenton and they are beefing up the terminal and security around the airport in support of this. Controller at the tower confirmed that.

I would think JetBlue would be interested. But who knows....They're really big on their culture, and despite Frontier being similar, I'm not sure it would be what they're looking for.

They'll get the airplanes when AS buys F9 and replaces the 'Buses with the 737 NGs they have on order. Win-win for all three Companies.
