I knew that much. I am just trying to get an actual number for ‘27-31.
I still believe there’s a good chance F9 and NK tie the knot again so I am trying to gauge what a combined fleet looks like. Our order book stops in 2029-2030 depending on delays.
Two broke b*tches...nah
The post covid era is not meant for smaller airlines to compete and survive, or even merge with one another for that matter. This is the big boy's world now, and we will either be part of them or end up on the street.

There’s really nothing unique about the post covid era that would prevent ULCCs from making money.

Legacies have much more capacity from new aircraft they didn’t have 5 years ago. Also, combined with less business travel has a compounding effect bc that old business capacity gets redeployed as leisure now which pushes down yield. The legacies know we are in a precarious position so they smell blood and will lose money on some seats to bleed us out. It’s working.

Spirit is significantly cheaper than the legacies in most markets and still can’t fill seats. The problem isn’t fare competition, no matter how much Uncle Ted wants to say it is.

Our fare’s are cheaper, how’s that not fare competition? It’s completely not fair!

As a customer there are two things I enjoy about Spirit. Getting places in one piece usually on time and the big seats up front, which I always book if I available. It's the best deal in the skies (minus no power outlets). The rest of the exprience is very very dissapointing, but still much better than F9.
