I’m not surprised at all considering how insufferable Biden is….

I hope so for everyone’s sake. I can see an approval.

I think people are failing to understand how much the market has changed. The Big Three who already have the advantages of economics of scale are now competing effectively with their basic economy fares. Except for certain niche markets, this is going to affect F9 just as it has NK.
That has the very real possibility of severely limiting the ULCC market nationwide.

The market constantly changes, nothing new. I think your view/opinion is changing because you’re headed to one of the Big 3. We can all say what we “think” but nobody knows anything, that has been proved over and over again

Sure but the fact that the legacies are competing hard by offering basic fares is new and is detrimental to the ULCC product. Both UA and AA started this in 2017 and it's now a large part of UAs product offering.

Bottom line, NONE of you know anything.

Was that the topic from the past? I can see the NK bashing once he starts indoc.

He’s not wrong. If anyone thinks Spirit or Frontier will be able to survive let alone grow without a massive shift in product offering needs their head checked. Being a niche stagnant airline with low pay like a Allegiant maybe but nothing more without a diversified product line, expansive network, a profitable credit card, and a real loyalty program that people actually want to join and stay.
