Agreed. I forget exactly but before all this there was around 100 more FO’s so that would make sense to me. Hard to see any new hires before March but I’d love to be wrong.

Do we still have a pool? I assume we do.

I agree with the above 2 posts. A March class seems most likely to me

Ive heard this a few times, and it would seem the most likely

They may not need to run a "new" upgrade class first with as many FO's upgrading during the current bids. I'd imagine all those who were CA before the leaves will get back in their seats and the upgrade classes will have taken place via the shuffling.

You sure do. No clue how many of us are in it exactly, but I'd assume it has got to be at least 40+ considering our April class was about that size. Total guess though, not like I'm in the know.

Ok, I figured.

We will certainly look forward to your class getting started. At least you know you didn't lose out on any seniority as you wait!

Anyone know if we still have any airplanes parked in ROW ? I'm out on the 6 month cola hoping I'll still hold my seat and base come April 1. Is all this "hiring" talk have some fact base or is it all wishful thinking? I thought Frontier was still at less than 50% flying from a year ago? Not trying to be a Debbie Downer but will capacity really come back so quick with the vaccine etc...?

A friend of mine was supposed to start new hire last APR 2020 when the pandemic hit. They told him he's in 'the pool' and will be first to start new hire when we ramp up again. Told him to sit tight and wait to be called. He hasn't heard a thing.

16 in ROW. Currently running around 60% of Jan 2020 numbers. This month is not looking great which I would then say Jan-Feb aren’t either. Honestly once the vaccine gets going I think the pent up travel demand will be there. A lot of white and blue collar jobs have never stopped getting a pay check.
