Southwest Airlines could have a winner in Frontier



Besides getting Frontier’s gates and routes at Denver if Southwest a href="http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/bus/stories/DN-swroutes_12bus.ART.State.Edition1.3cf6b00.html"buys the carrier out of bankruptcy/a, it gets more.br /br /That “more” includes the possibility of changing its business model.br /br /Could Southwest move at least somewhat more in a hub-and-spoke direction? Could it keep Frontier’s regional line, Lynx? Unthinkable as those ideas might have been just a couple of years ago, maybe so.br /br /If Southwest stayed with the one-plane model for its main line, and put a “one-plane” model at work for Lynx, too, just a different one plane, and just tweaked its current modified hub system, it could stay in the clover.div class="blogger-post-footer"There is no god and I am his prophet.img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7532871-4698938062631304434?l=socraticgadfly.blogspot.com'//div
