Did I miss something in the article? So far it looks like all the other ambiguous articles, not an actual aircraft order. We've been out in the market for a fleet order for a year now, let me know when there's an actual order.
"Kirk Thornburg, Spirit Airlines’ vice president of technical operations, said the airline is “out in the market for a fleet order” and recently completed its first-round of request for proposals, speaking at Aviation Week’s 2019 MRO Americas Conference. The airline operates an all-Airbus fleet—A319s, A320s and A321s--so far but Thornburg said Spirit plans to make a decision mid-year, although it could slide until the third quarter."

#134 is a WOW 320.
The fact that we keep scavenging dead airlines for planes is both reassuring in our intent to grow and concerning as it would seem to indicate the trouble we’re in by not securing 320 production slots earlier.

That’s my point. Completely agree. Without securing slots earlier, the alternatives are expensive aircraft leasing or scavenging with others looking to add older Airbuses like UAL, Allegiant and the Chinese LCCs. The Airbus order backlog is long....

And..... We should do what about it?
My point is, you're a broken record.
