I'd be very interested in thoughts here but I can't imagine a spin-out of FF programs being economic in any viable way. Also, given the fact that operational decisions within the FF program would continue to have massive implications for the airline (and vice versa), I can't imagine they would actually run the two separately. I'll eat my hat when that roadshow comes through.
