"It's the tale of the tail.

Frontier Airlines just took delivery of its first Airbus 318 jet, a shorter version of the carrier's workhorse A319.

The $45 million plane is 8 feet shorter than its cousin, but the 318's tail is more than 2 feet higher, and that has DIA officials worried that the plane won't clear the pedestrian bridge between the terminal and the A concourse."
