Interesting. Is this going to be a new variant of MEP, or did they actually get the rights and IP back from Frontier? The rights to the brand for MEP was bought and merged into FFT back in 2010.

Regardless, this may not be a good time for them to make a comeback, as with oil prices going up with no sign of stopping, they may become the next Skybus - return with service, but get crushed due to high oil prices and not being able to hedge prices due to how high oil prices currently are.

I'm inclined to agree. Even though it's an interesting development, part of me seriously questions if this is nothing more than a mere chase for nostalgia or if they seriously intend to serve and fulfill a market demand. And based on previous revival start-ups in recent years, this new Midwest Express venture may not last long. We'll have to wait and see...

SWA and Delta won't ever let it happen. They will flood the markets since all the YX FF base flies either of them.
