In our ratings basement: American and Frontier, which tied for last place. It was a return trip for Frontier.”

Dont you dare EVER let anyone tell you Frontier isn’t legacy material.

It’s the two most disgruntled pilot groups in the industry.

“Take care of your employees and they’ll take care of your customers.”

Pay is just the starting point, this company has a decade of burning goodwill to make up for. Even if the new leadership does a complete 180, it’s going to take time to rebuild trust and right the ship. But if any company wants to be successful it starts with good relationships with employees.

makes total sense… they’re getting the XLR. Indigo’s way of getting an international network. And Wizz labor costs are way lower than in the US.

And let them. I don't want to fly a 321 across the pond for $100 less an hour than our peers. Probably will be built into some crap 10hr redeye 2 or 3 day like Jetblue does.

It will fail miserably, just like all the other ULCC attempts at crossing the pond

Oh ya. I thought that it was a huge blunder on Barry’s part to not go for the XLR. Incredibly short sighted.
