I don't think this country can support 3 ULCC's (4 if you count Swoop). Maybe 1-2. I also don't get the appeal, the savings aren't really significant in my experience and the benefits of a mainline carrier probably outweigh the small cost difference. Plus I'm a big guy and the seats are bad enough on mainline, I cannot fathom stuffing myself into the seating nightmare that is a ULCC for anything other than shorthaul flight.
