Deutsche Bank analysts said they considered the border as better placed to benefit from Spirit’s bankruptcy, given the overlap of the two airlines. The brokerage also improved its note to “buy” “hold”.

“Generally, part of Spirit’s capacity is likely to be deleted, which underlines the pressure on the internal market, in particular the main cabin, at a time when domestic demand also improves the strong overflows earlier in the year,” said Raymond James analyst, Savanthi Syth, in a note.
Frontier has the largest seat that overlaps with Spirit, although questions remain on the question of whether ultra-shows carriers can maintain their business model as costs increase.
