There's an article from Press of AC:

The Casino Reinvestment Development Authority would “buy” a certain number of unfilled seats on each flight for a certain period of time.
Maybe F9 could operate a few flights into/out of ACY to complement TTN and ILG and have the fallback of subsidy assistance if it's underperforming. This doesn't appear to be route or carrier specific, so it would offer Frontier flexibility to have 3-6x weekly, which fits Frontier better, instead of dedicated daily service.
I'd think PIT, CLE and UST (Florida entry) would be ideal, with PIT and CLE designed for pax that commute from NJ to these short-haul markets (but long enough of drive), perhaps moving CLE-TTN to CLE-ACY, and adding PIT with this as well.
Since at some point, TTN will be maxed out, it'd make sense to dedicate TTN to the slightly longer stage, destinational and profitable flights including MDW, ATL, DTW and MCO and non destinational, experimental, but over 500 mile distance smaller Midwest markets like STL, MKE and MSP if these prove possible past the summer season.
For ILG, it could open up DFW, IAH which are even longer since the runway is longer, but dedicate up to 5x weekly for both to attract more business pax. This would steal some pax from AA out of PHL. The Avis car rental at ILG does cater to the Frontier inbound and outbound flights, so one can rent a car from ILG (if coming up from DFW or IAH) and get easily to most of the western or eastern side of the PHL market. Most businesses are west of PHL and ILG is within one hour from points like King of Prussia, PA. Plus, the pax will be in the area to swing by the local Christiana area to buy something they need tax free.
Southwest is ending PHL-FLL and PHL-RSW is unknown. It has 4x daily on PHL-MCO and 1x on PHL-TPA in October. I think the 4x daily on PHL-MCO is decent but Southwest is susceptible that if Frontier adds more out of TTN especially and ILG as well, it could see even more of it's pax flee to TTN (and maybe ILG). In the cold winter, pax prefer short walk from car to gate ability without waiting for shuttles.
