Does anyone know if the FAPA invest payment came from Indigo or Frontier? If it was the latter, that may have put a big dent in the $767m in cash on hand at the end of 2019...

I just wanted to find out if the April 01 class is "for sure - for sure" postponed? I already put in my 2-week notice with my current job and my last day of work is Monday (16 Mar). They aren't letting me change the date as of now. They might let me change it if I am able to confirm that my class was delayed and I haven't been able to talk with anyone from HR yet. Also, could May 01 turn into Jun 01, in otherwords, should I just not give another quit date? Thanks.

I would completely rescind your notice.

We are reducing flying 32% and offering leave of absences to line pilots. Hiring is frozen for the time being.

Currently in training. We were told that the April class was moved to May. Nothing is official unless you actually receive confirmation directly from recruiting. Just sharing what we were told yesterday.

I would tell your current employer your class was canceled and you’re not going anywhere I expect that May date to get delayed further. If it doesn’t, play it by ear with giving a two week notice later on when you have more info.

The sky is falling. Same group that has zero life outside of APC commenting here. Get a grip losers. 2 months and everything will back as normal. Most of these fear mongers had their bonus check spent before they got it.

Its a good outlook but realistically... Plan for the worst, hope for the best. The economic damage to most sectors is will be getting worse before it gets better.

^^ This. If you've got time someplace else, why risk being a potential brand-new # elsewhere?

I absolutely think he should come to Frontier, but don't quit the job till you're confirmed in class.

I put in 3 2-week notices for F9. The class sizes changed/got postponed, etc. I was fortunate to have an understanding chief pilot, but If I could go back I would give the notice when I was 100% certain class was happening.
