===Fleet at time of closure=== {{As of|2009|November}}, [[Frontier Airlines]] pilots and crew operated five Airbus [[A319-100]] aircraft for Midwest Airlines. All former Midwest Airlines [[Boeing 717]]s were retired on November 3, 2009. The majority of Midwest Airlines routes were operated by Midwest Connect through [[outsourcing]], allowing Midwest to advertise and maintain a [[airway (aviation)|route]] system similar to what existed prior to [[Midwest Air Group]]'s takeover by [[Texas Pacific Group]]:<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.midwestairlines.com/AboutUs/PlaneTypes.aspx |title=Plane Types|publisher=Midwest Airlines |access-date=October 1, 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081121080507/http://www.midwestairlines.com./AboutUs/PlaneTypes.aspx |archive-date=November 21, 2008 }}</ref> The Boeing 717 aircraft were replaced by the [[Airbus A319]] flown by Frontier Airlines and 15 [[Embraer 190]] aircraft flown by [[Republic Airlines]]. Ten of these aircraft were purchased from [[US Airways]].<ref name="euroinvestor.co.uk">{{cite web|url=http://www.euroinvestor.com/news/2009/10/14/republic-airways-to-acquire-10-embraer-190ar-aircraft-from-us-airways/10673401|title=Republic Airways to Acquire 10 Embraer 190AR Aircraft from US Airways|website=EuroInvestor}}</ref> During the merger with Frontier Airlines, it was announced that the Midwest Airlines fleet of Embraers would not be merged into Frontier Airlines' [[Air operator's certificate|operating certificate]]; the two types of aircraft would continue to be crewed and operated separately by the two airlines.{{Citation needed|date=April 2010}} {| class="toccolours" border="1" cellpadding="3" style="margin:1em auto; border-collapse:collapse" |+ '''Fleet branded as Midwest Airlines at time of merger into Frontier''' !Aircraft !Total !Passengers<br />(Signature/Saver) !Routes !Notes |- |[[Airbus A319-100]] |5 |136 (0/136) |Domestic |Operated by [[Frontier Airlines]] |- |[[Embraer 170]] |15 |76 (0/76) |Domestic |Operated by [[Republic Airways]] |- |[[Embraer 190]] |10 |99 (11/88) |Domestic |Operated by [[Republic Airways]]<ref>http://www.midwestairlines.com/AboutUs/CompanyNews/RepublicASA_20090521.aspx {{dead link|date=September 2017}}</ref><br /> |}
