Awesome. Maybe it’ll be filled with massive displacements again. Maybe out of FL?

Why a LAX base since JetBlue already has one?

How does JB having an LAX base help Spirit if we “need” and LAX base?

Did you guys have a BWI base long ago?

Rumors of new bases here at JB with DCA, ORD, SFO as the top contenders. BDL, TPA, LAS as the secondaries 😂

lol BWI and its 18 daily departures that used to be 48. That station was murdered by the genious network planning team and i cant help but draw a link between the company losing money and decisions like divesting in places like BWI. MIA is a dud. Everyone knows it. Cant even compete with Frontier out of MIA. And Myrtle has been slowly F'd by planning as well. Pretty much our dead center target customer base is people that vacation in MYR, and planning is just letting Southwest have it zero-to-hero style. Not my money being lost so whatever, but this management team is 100% deer in the headlights and totally checked out. Some of the decisions theyve made are so bad in hindsight that id hope it has to be for an ulterior motive, whether or not on the up and up. Not to be critical.

For what reasons would Spirit not be able to compete with F9 in MIA?

im not sure. But I can tell you prob for the same reason they are killing us in DFW. They seem to be taking all the routes we used to do.

F9 guy. I’m not sure but, F9 doesn’t seem to be “killing it” in Miami. No one really knows what’s going on with it.

I believe they say it’s a jumping off point for Deep South. Idk.
