When I came to F9 I had high hopes, but the reality is that management is implementing regional tactics, in short we are racing to the bottom rather than the top.

I'm willing to bet that management drags LOA67 as long as possible or will simply ignore in lieu of contract negotiations. The new contract will be in place no earlier than 4 years at best, regardless of what we try as a pilot group. The regionals have proven that you can have 8 years worth of talk with no progress. You see management not really negotiating at the moment.

The only hope would be to be sold to a major carrier, which I believe it's extremely unlikely. A merger with Spirt will yield same results as current. If you as a pilot at F9 are happy to get Spirit current wages, then you are selling yourself short.

Maybe I'm missing something, but why would anyone stay here unless super senior?? Frontier could be an awesome career airline, but it just isn't and I do see it becoming that. Not a pessimist, but a realist.
