Headed to the MTC in Miami next month. I only have a handful of turbine time, is it worth going now at the risk of getting a “call back in 6 months” or good chance I can get hired even with just a R-ATP and a few hours turbine?
Side question: do you guys see frontier trending towards 1 day trips long term or is this a temporary thing.
TIA

Go to the MTC, ask your questions there. Most people aren’t actually “interviewed” at these events, it’s just a way to get noticed and hopefully get a call quicker, so it can’t hurt to go. But I THINK the posted minimums (500 turbine and a full ATP) will still apply unless you’re one of the Purdue or Riddle pilots.

Thanks. We're living in Iowa, I know we're stubborn but we're not moving either. Maybe airlines aren't the best fit, but exploring all options at this point.

The great QOL at Frontier is definitely for those living in base. If you are going to commit to a long term commute, I'd look very hard at domiciles, time zones, and the number of flights to those domiciles. You definitely want to find an airline that has a base as close to you and with as much frequency of service as possible. That being said, I would think a commute to Chicago from Iowa might be you best bet. Maybe United would be best for you?
