Check your email. 70% turns. It doesn’t mean all of them will be day trips but I would expect a significant increase in day trips and a decrease in overall trip mix.

I find it hilarious that the email mentioned non-Florida based pilots flying the LATAM routes of MIA.

Of course it wasn't going to go over well lol...what else did they expect?

Not only commuters will be impacted but I fly with a lot guys that live an hour or more from the airport. This is going to suck all around. Also, it seems day trips pay less…

I also think some bases may shrink. Not only trying to staff the new bases but I think some bases have less departures than some focus cities.

Honestly for me that’s a bonus but I know if you commute turns are terrible (been there done that). Also why are we opening bases that frontier already has? Why add overlap before we try and get approved for the merger? This makes no sense to me.
