Published On Jan 29, 2025, 8:18 AM
Spirit Airlines has rejected Frontier Airlines' recent $2.1 billion merger proposal, indicating the offer is below expectations compared to a previous $2.9 billion deal. Spirit, which filed for bankruptcy last year, is open to further negotiations. Frontier proposes that combining their services would enhance travel options and provide savings for consumers.
