Shit just saw something about a crowd funding attempt to buy the airlines. At the moment there was over 300 million pledged with the average pledge at 900.00 plus. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/ge ... rcna343953

Speaking from my own prospective, I was happy the merger between Spirit and JetBlue didn't happen,
I don;t believe it would have benefitted JetBlue. Spirit notorious for its cancellatiions and disruptive passengers.

Listening to Peter Greenberg travel editor. make a few valid points, major airlines AA, Delta purchase jetfuel three months in advance and will purchase more when theres a drop in price. Low cost carriers do not.
As far as bailing out Spirit, all the carriers went the Feds looking for $$ to defray the cost of jetfuel, none got any $$.
