I still laugh when people take career advice from this site… last week it was stock options. Some people got what they deserved. Lolz.
Who’s gonna succeed, who’ll fail, who won’t exist, or merge. And it’s so arrogantly certain how some people say it too. I bet half theee people aren’t even good at their own job. Yet, they know how to run airlines, and which vaccines everyone should take. Please. Sill waiting for all knowing Andy to show back up… |

On and on and on about ULCC being dead. Can we at least wait until Q4 financials come out to see if F9 lost money for the year? The overwhelming thought on this board was JB would be approved so any opinion on why a future merger will/wont be approved should be viewed with extreme skepticism.

With the big 4 plus Alaska reporting record profits, the fact that we have to wait and see if F9 was even profitable for 2023 proves it isn't doing well.

I believe it’s safe to say Frontier was not profitable for 2023.

Didn't American only profit like 19m in Q4?
They took some investment write-downs that weren't part of the airline operations. The airline itself made $192m 4th quarter, and 1.9b for the year. For an airline that was supposed to be a dead man walking a couple of years ago. The fact that F9 might, maybe, possibly be profitable, and NK is not, answer the question about whether the ULCC business model is struggling. And the NK engine problem is really not to blame, as the bulk of the issue is yet to come. I don't know if Pratt compensation has started yet though. |

Their free cash flow allowed them to pay off more debt than $1.9b for the year. |
