Allegiant uses a similar model and is extremely profitable. The financial turnaround at Frontier since this model was instituted is one of the major reasons it was attractive to the new owner.

Whether Indigo will continue with this model is beyond my ken, but I find it difficult to believe that Indigo was unaware of the announcements at ILG and TTN and presumably gave them the nod, as CEO Siegel indicated.
