28-30 per class each month based upon the hiring goal of 300 for 2019. But as many will point out, we usually fall short of the target numbers advertised by the hiring folks. Every airframe being delivered on time will have a large effect on the need for 300 new pilots.

Most likely 2 classes of 24 each a month and about half that in upgrades.
Latest vacancy bid has 20 captain slots
Now whether or not they can actually train that volume is yet tbd.
Supposed to hire at least 300 this year and 15 net aircraft deliveries.
Those are the numbers I have heard thrown around.

I believe it, but things have changed a lot in the last few years.

Anybody have any help or insight on getting an interview with F9. I'm currently at the regionals now with 2100 TT and about 1300 TPIC. Do I need more TT to even be considered and more 121 experience or internal? Or both? Thanks!

Yup..
Attend one of the Meet the Chiefs events. Next one is in Chicago in a couple of weeks.
You’ll get to meet HR and have time to make a good impression.
PM me if you need more..

Ask for a silver bullet from a current Frontier pilot if you know any.

Do they not publish updated seniority list every month anymore?
