While some of this is opportunistic, real estate is something that is more of an urgent need to take advantage of before the opportunity goes away. The running theme on keeping the A319s is to take advantage of the opportunities as they arise. “But we still had some really good successes in 2021 on real estate so we were able to get access to the Marine Air Terminal LaGuardia which will now be our permanent home and we’ll be the primary lessor on the Port Authority of New York, New Jersey…We were able to pick up a fourth gate Los Angeles, which again wouldn’t have happened if not for the pandemic.” If Spirit had retired its A319 fleet, it would have put a strain on its existing A320ceo fleet to cover the new opportunities that arose and would undoubtedly have limited the airline’s growth. Many major airports are significantly congested, but that does not mean Spirit could not gain new space. They need room for a ticket counter and bag drop and room to bring bags from the jet to the terminal. Airlines need to have a gate or a remote space where they can board aircraft. One of the biggest constraining factors for an airline is real estate. However, there was another factor at play that pushed Spirit to bring the Airbus A319s. Louis (STL), Louisville (SDF), Milwaukee (MKE), and more throughout 2021 while also adding new routes from existing cities like Atlantic City (ACY). Some of this has been evident in Spirit’s new market launches. As early as October of 2020, Spirit had already begun planning its future with the A319s. The simple answer was that Spirit wanted to grow faster than its new deliveries would be able to fuel, particularly in the second half of 2021, which includes most of the summer season and busy Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday periods. So if we retired the 319 fleet, we probably wouldn’t have been able to really grow in the back half and take advantage of opportunities that we thought would be evident.” “The idea here was we wanted to get back to growth. Speaking with John Kirby, Vice President of Network Planning, he explained to Simple Flying why the airline decided to bring these jets back: Photo: Getty Images Why Spirit brought back the A319s Spirit Airlines decided to retain its fleet of Airbus A319 aircraft. The smallest and oldest planes in the fleet, Spirit Airlines brought them back after parking the fleet of 31 aircraft in 2020. However, there is an outlier in the Airbus A319 fleet. With 24 new A320neos coming next year on top of 16 new jets in 2021, Spirit Airlines has significantly grown its fleet of newer, fuel-efficient jets. It has a sizable order for Airbus A320neo aircraft and has plans to significantly grow its fleet of A320neo aircraft over the next few years.
