Because Southwest would not revise its offer for Frontier due to provisions regarding pilot seniority and merging the lists, Republic Airways won Frontier in bankruptcy court, for about $60M less than Southwest was offering. Read more here.
In other Atlanta aviation news, Airtran is swapping slots at Newark for slots at National Airport and Laguardia. The net result - no more Airtran flights to Newark. Want to go on Airtran to NYC, you must go to Laguardia. You'll get more flights to National and to LGA, though.

I hate airlines. I used to be able to go non-stop from Providence to Tampa. Not any more. The only airline offering that is SW, and I don't have a FFP with them.
They cram you in, like cattle. Also, the seats are uncomfortable. Because I'm short, the seats are too long and they hurt the back of my knees. I always try to get an aisle seat because I don't like having to do acrobatics to get past the other folks in my aisle to go to the restroom.
