Indigo Partners LLC, led by veteran airline executive William Franke, has agreed to buy Frontier Airlines from Indianapolis-based Republic Airways Holdings Inc. for $36 million in cash. (www.ibj.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Airchive's article on the deal seems to point to Frontier moving to a different hub, what could be the options?
The definition of "regional" airline has become somewhat flexible...I just did RSW-LGA and return on Delta Connection operated by Shuttle America on E-170's. Very good service and except for a long take off queue at LGA, efficient and on time. Every bit as good as any of the mainline carriers and better than many.
