This is supported by the fact that F9 is doing the same cuts in Philly. unless of course you claim they are pulling out of there too.
According to
PlaneSpotters.net Frontier has received 5 new 320s this year and has not retired any 319s since about 2006. That may not be completely up to date.
I heard earlier that Frontier was going to retire the 319s and replace them with newer bigger planes, but given the recent drop in fuel prices that may be put off. I'd expect the management to want to get as many planes in the air as possible while the legacies are all limiting capacity.
