Just got another clue from the merger gods that it will happen and will be with Frontier.

we are going to now have identical Elite status with Frontier’s reward program.

even The Points Guy thinks it fishy...

“...That’s the exact same amount of spending it takes to unlock competitor Frontier Airlines’ first and second tiers of elite status with its cobranded credit card. Coincidence?“

Don’t forget that Frontiers DOS for pay raises is the exact anniversary date as our even though they signed on a completely different day.

I hear the animals calling.

Well if F9 has to merge I would be happy if it’s Spirit. One big pain in the ass for the big 4 Ual Amr dal and SWA.

Only benefit of a merger with them would be a Denver base, which I’d likely be too junior to hold with my current qol....

Please god no

...or they got tired of shelling out lots of miles on $20 transcon fares and decided to copy what Frontier was doing to keep the loyalty program costs from getting out of control.

sounds like they were getting enough takers from what from I understand.

Borrowing from other carriers is the Spirit way.

Like aligning rewards programs is high on the priority list for pre-merger talks. You guys are funny. Mergers are primarily about financials. Operational alignment is a factor but certainly isn't executed until the financial deal is done and everyone knows about it.

Stop and consider that the OP wasn’t remotely serious.
