DENVER—Frontier Airlines Holdings is focused on staying a standalone carrier as it works to reorganize under bankruptcy protection.
Frontier Chief Executive Sean Menke said Thursday he’s looking at more code-sharing agreements and joint ventures as a way to boost business and contain costs.
Menke’s comments come just days after Delta and Northwest airlines announced plans to combine in a stock-swap deal.
Denver-based Frontier Airlines last week filed a Chapter 11 petition in U.S. Bankruptcy Court to restructure its debt.
Menke credits the 6,000-employee work force with helping maintain business as usual while he works on the bankruptcy proceeding and keeping investors informed.
