Maybe Franke got the FAA riled up before he left, just to stir things up a bit.
Bah bye says yet another airline

Yeah, ugh........kinda makes me slightly uneasy only being a few months in. Maybe that's why there has been a mas exodus of middle management the past 6 months.......You're right though, not much anyone can do

Sounds about right. Indigos original game plan was to only be vested in NK for about 7 years. It has been close to 13, I will not be surprised to see him take Frontier into direct competition with us.

But what the hell do I know, is this the real caesars palace?

I wouldnt get too worked up just yet. Indigo will be completely seperate from us. We are still in a growth model with firm orders for aircraft, its not like indigo can take these new airbuses and play the whipsaw game. I think this is a good thing. We will steer the course, continue our organic growth with firm orders for A320's and 321's, and have a "less" likely chance of having to deal with a merger or having the two pilot groups played against eachother, competing for growth.

So I wonder, when is Frontier up for a new contract? The pay rates are pretty low (Not knocking you guys) just makes sense that where they are you might be on a contract that is 8 years old. If so Indigo coming in is a BAD sign and I hope the Frontier pilots have their game faces on cause he will rip any pilot group apart.
He should not be underestimated.
