Keep in mind, the fuel prices are up for ALL airlines. If it were a contributing factor, then ALL airline stocks would be tanking.

Look at a six month chart for any of the Big 4 and they've all pretty much been in an idle-descent since July. Wall Street, forward-lookers that they are, concluded about mid-summer that the 'revenge travel' party was just about over and that fuel prices weren't likely to stay down. Granted, the % drop is greater with ULCC, but the entire industry is moving in the same direction.

Anyone know when we should hear about F9s financials? Delta knocked it out of the park and I'm ready to hear more half truths and excuses from our management.

Quarterly investor call usually first week of November. As always, reports and webcast deets posted on the investor site: https://ir.flyfrontier.com/. Someone usually scoops the story the week before and you'll see market reaction in advance with all the inside trading that happens so expect rumors to fly last week of October.

There's no chance they did well. Small profit at best.

Reuters article about frontier and spirit doing horrible isn’t the best motivator. I feel we’ve probably peaked as an airline. We won’t be gaining any momentum in our negotiations. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

Agreed.

His latest plan was to "double down on cost"

That pretty much tells you he's run out of ideas. Time for some fresh blood

In a somewhat related note, I did like seeing the attrition numbers in the union email from a few days ago. I hope they keep that up.
