But you're not the target market, for Allegiant, Spirit or Frontier.
No one who wants the legacy goodies and is content to pay for them is the target market.
The target market is those who feel disenfranchised by the legacies, and since Spirit and Allegiant are both extremely profitable, it seems to be a very large market.
Becoming ULCC has only improved Frontier financials and saved it from the grave.
