I am one of those who pays for the front seats.

I don't think its technology. I just don't think they care. I fly a bunch every year, loved Frontier, but now I move on.
So how much would it actually cost Frontier and Spirit to become TSA-Pre enabled?

Intuitively, it seems crazy not to be compliant because you're actively deterring frequent flyers from using your airline, and logic says frequent flyers bring in the most revenue. But perhaps the other aspects of their service deter most such folks anyway, so they feel no need to spend the money.

I'd guess that new Spriit CEO Fornaro (ex AirTran) will spend the money.
