Story from the Training Dept is 50 pilots total and internal recs will fill all of them. First class to start in 4 weeks (apx). Good Luck!

Thanks for the info!

Unfortunately I don't have any internal recs, I guess I should have been a little more proactive networking when I was sitting in a Frontier jumpseat twice a week. ;)

No. The pilots aren't being asked anything of the sort. The equity stake the Frontier pilots own is not a negotiable item by any pilot union. It is an equity position managed by an independent investment company, so you would have to ask that independent investment company about that rumor, not the Frontier pilots. However, if the pilots had a say, I'm sure they would tell you that they have already given enough and the answer would be no thank you. At least that is what I would say in that hypothetical situation.

I don't know of any request at the present time. I do know that the company has said that the sale was contingent on several "3rd party" agreements that must be complete. As far as I know the company has not made public what these "3rd party" agreements are. I fully expect a request for pilot concessions of some sort soon based on all the information we have at this time. Giving up the equity stake in the company would make sense because it is the one thing the that would not require the IBT's approval or a vote. I disagree with Great Santani that we, the pilots would just say no to any concessionary request. The fact is we have a record of agreeing to concessions 100% of the time, we have never said NO! Just my 2 cents worth. It will continue to be an interesting ride. Good luck to all of us and good luck to all the applicants looking to make the next step in this career.

Hey Rocky, read my last sentence before you disagree with me. I can't form your or anyone else's opinion, just mine.

Sounds like I'm not gonna have a chance here as I don't know any folks at Frontier. But, for those who got the TBNT email...did it say it was from Frontier or RAH? Just kurius

I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings that are currently working at Frontier and I wish them all the luck..... But why would anyone want to make the move to the bottom of the seniority list of a company that is only hiring 50 pilots and is in the process of being sold or spun off? Unless its a short stopover while one tries to find a better job?

Because we have a gambling addiction?
