Save Frontier Airlines

[scoreboardII]

If enough airlines were to drive into SouthWest hotspots like Hobby, Love etc; the business model would probably fail. .

You're mistaken assumption is that just because airlines would encroach into LUV field, that those airlines would be able to win a pricing war.

They wouldn't, they haven't, and they gave up trying decades ago.

Nice try though.

You're right, the more they change,the more they (LUV) stays the same.

As I recall only one major ever tried to infringe upon Love and that was American. Even in that case they were really going after a startup called Legend. The one time the majors went after Southwest, the original Frontier, loaned Southwest, (see Herb), a handful of 737,s at cost. In any case within the last decade or so Southwest has had a practically competion free market in those three airports which allows the company to operate at a loss in other areas while destroying competition.
