Pilots have been threatened with discipline for calling in sick, even if that sick leave had been previously approved. Here’s how bad it is: we’ve had more than 1,700 dispute forms filed – more complaints than we have pilots on the property." -ALPA
We're deeply appreciative from the support we have received from #WeAreALPA. It's good to know 64,000 members have our back.
This is all true. But since anybody currently considering employment at Frontier is arguably incapable of translating the message let me elaborate...the largest organized group of pilots in the entire world is saying, “Don’t go to Frontier.”
You, the applicant, might say, “So what? I’m just going to get an Airbus type. I’m headed to Delta or United anyway.” Make sure that’s your answer when the pilots in the Delta/United interview ask you, “Why did you go to Frontier when our union told you not to?” Or they might ask, “How long do you think your selfishness delayed a fair contract for our ALPA brothers at Frontier?”
