DC is a huge plus at Frontier. Every other weekend goes critical on the captain side which is 175% pay at my regional.. every airline has their soft pay rules, holiday pay we had captains making 40K as line holders, some over 50K flying over their vacation. $213/hour captains here over 5 years. One LCA made over 70K in December. FO’s clearing 20K for holiday months is normal too.. we all got nice soft pay rules

This is why all the captains at top pay rate and able to flow within 2 years are staying. Money is too good, not to mention the bonuses they receive too.

line holder can easily get 16-18 days off a month at a WO if they please
