They're certainly not too big to fail. But there's a lot ridding on them not to.
OTOH a failure of 9W would instantly increase revenues for AI and improve Indigo and cos cash flow. The jobs are not a big factor, the cabin and flight crew will instantly find a home in the current market. The consumers are already going for the LoCos, who have massive growth planned and need the customers.
