My flights today were sold out though which is nice

I think 2021 hiring is really about 2022. If signs are of a robust rebound then we’ll hire to be in a position to capture that growth. The lag from interview for hitting the line is 4 plus months; I think we remain in a very good position, and will present an attractive career choice..

For those on the outside looking in...
Someone on the FB pilot page posted a form response sent to a friend who recently sent their stuff in. It went to the tune of "Thank you for applying yada, yada, yada. Frontier anticipates the next hiring window to resume in February." This was obviously an auto response, but it's the most definitive thing I've seen or heard of to date regarding actual hiring intentions. This is, of course, for interviewing. Actual class dates may not necessarily come right away. At this point though, even an interview and a CJO would be good news for those needing to find employment.
Take it FWIW.

Frontier is definitely trying to get the fleet back flying. They denied a ton of monthly leave requests. They clearly intend to ramp up the flying
