We make a good bit of dividend income every year from our previous career savings, and curious if the ACT 60 law with no income tax on passive income would apply. If they ever call me up from the Cadet program, I might need to look at those programs closer if based in Puerto Rico. I think only Frontier wages would then be subject to PR income taxes after becoming a resident.

Might be getting a bit over the skis, seeing as how Frontier hasn’t even announced a base in SJU.

No kidding, I might be on social security before getting a start date. lol. I heard my sister, CPA, talking about a client of hers that moved down there for tax purposes.

It will be announced I’m guessing in March, they’re already talking about staffing it in the GO.

I think there are some real tax benefits to living there. Just make sure to get a good generator and some gas cans because some areas didn't get power back for 5 months after the hurricane

Given the absence of classes and the pooling of new hires, one cannot help but ponder the extent of involuntary displacements required to facilitate this expansion.

If indeed they choose to open four new bases without initiating new hire classes or upgrades, the situation may rapidly deteriorate. Best wishes to all.

I came to Frontier just over a year ago, because I was served a completely different flavor of koolaide. I understand the airline industry can be dynamic, but this new "kitty litter" flavored koolaide seems downright punitive. The end game is not being advertised, I reckon.

I bought into this ULCC model as it seemed the numbers and kool aide they were serving did make sense. And we did make a lot of
money for a while. I recall in RGS showing th slide show of our super low CASM and the huge market of under served ULCC. Lately I’ve noticed things have gotten better with performance and stations. But it’s because they now have a lot more ground staff. So now those costs will go up. Now are tickets are so cheap , we’re just trying to fill planes.

I really don’t think the company sits in the crystal palace wringing their hands and having a meeting of how to ruin pilots lives. They’re just looking to keep the ship afloat imo and trying new strategies.
