Additionally, there’s a disparity in retirement benefits, with a 15% 401k contribution at Frontier versus 18% at the legacy carrier. No profit-sharing at Frontier. The discrepancies continue across various aspects of compensation and benefits.
There is no reason we shouldn’t achieve a 100% voter turnout with a 100% “yes” vote. Frontier Captains earn $119 per hour less while taking on double the workload due to outsourcing every other department to the lowest bidding contractors. First Officers are paid $90 per hour less. Meanwhile, the cost of living has increased by 25% over the past four years due to inflation. Our pay increases haven’t come close to covering the increased cost of living.
Barry is forecasting a double digit profit margin next year. It’s time to pay up!
Year-2 Big-3 FO pay is Frontier Year-12 FO pay
contrary to popular belief, yes they can drop trips also. No, they are "not going bankrupt tomorrow"
The huge influx of Big-3 pilots in our new hire classes is the proof in the pudding that our QOL and overall benefits package is amazing
