Article about Frontier Delaware pullout

Didn't see this posted yet but it's on USA Today's site:

http://www.usatoday.com/story/todayi...vice/29462763/


Quote from the article:

Delaware Economic Development Director Alan Levin said he was not surprised by Frontier's withdrawal.

"Truthfully, they did not make a firm commitment to the service," he said. "When you continue to change your offerings, people will lose faith in what is being provided. When I book a ticket, I want to know I'm going to be getting on a plane without the flight being canceled."



Just about sums it up if you ask me. No loyalty or confidence will be built up by the constant changes. Certainly other airlines change things all the time, but Frontier doesn't appear to be making a good name for themselves in many of these smaller markets (I guess they don't care about the blowback when they leave a region, since those people are no longer their customers... as long as they have no plans to return in the future anyway.)
