Quote from the WSJ Article

The president said he had "a smart person" in mind who could potentially run Spirit and that he believed the airline could get back on solid financial footing

The government is hiring an outside firm analyze the deal.

A lawyer for Spirit said the company needs access to existing cash or new funding in the next few days to continue operations.

This bailout will not come fast enough. It's over.
