That would make buying a controlling interest...well, tedious, to say the least.
Not only that, but back when prices were REALLY depressed, the BOD adopted a “poison pill” provision that would allow them to fend off unwanted takeovers:

I would regard that rumor as unlikely to be true.

Oh I love mindless rumors.
1. Management said a couple town-halls ago that they definitely want to see Anchorage, as they see it as a high-yield seasonal route with high fares.
2. LAX is a MX base and has more flying than ORD, DFW, DTW, BWI, ACY, EWR, or ATL. In fact, IIRC the only three cities we do more departures per day out of (this July) are FLL, MCO, and LAS— and a big percentage of LAS flying is to support LAX. I heard from a good source that NK was considering a LAX crew base pre-covid, not BWI. I would bet that ANY additional gates in LAX would mean a crew base. I’m sure it’s expensive but so is X hotel rooms a night.
3. Apparently someone in the Allegiant training department is telling people there that ALGT has already bought spirit but can’t spill the beans because of the covid money
just some ideas

I'm 90 percent sure I saw SJO overnights too. I'd love to get Liberia, Grand Cayman, Cozumel and other places down there but I feel like it'd all be turns. I would kill for some of those overnights if we didn't do mostly turns out of FLL/MCO.
