Another massacre in Denver today. 3/14. I was in the majority. ! All solid dudes. Best of luck to those to apply and blue skies to those that got the nod.

Ouch, sorry to hear the bad news. What were the backgrounds of the guys who got the nod?

If they can get a decent schedule and a moderate amount of pay - they're on the super fast-track to Fat Dumb & Happy
Maybe not, I think one of those guys just left this week. Hoping attrition gets management's attention before you and I have to add to the number leaving, Sulk.

That sucks. I'd give my left nut to go to Frontier and all I've heard is crickets.

Based on the interview numbers, you should get a chance. Good Luck.

Dont be so sorrow. Put your apps in with all the airlines. THere is a seat with your name on it!

Frontier is a great airline but there are others you can go to and wait it out until Frontier calls again.

Chin up!

I would be curious as to the current interviewers quals. That seems crazy low twice from past interviews. I wonder what has changed???

Not to scare folks away, but talking to those hired within the last year, this kind of ratio at the interview is the norm, not the exception.
My interview group last October netted 2/13. Lots of great guys there that day, good mix of military, previous majors, regionals, cargo, etc. Class was similar mix, so don't read too much into the threads trying to read the crystal ball as to who will stay and who won't. Some good things going on here with lots of growth, new A/C and hopefully an improved contract on the distant horizon. Not Valhalla, but a good place because of a good pilot group. As previously posted, come in prepared, be yourself, and don't hide in the corner!

Good luck to all.

Now things may change at F9 in a couple years to make this less so, but as of now? Let's just be honest here...

I agree, but just letting folks know for their interviews. Personally, I'd have a hard time giving the thumbs up to anybody in their 20's or early 30's who DIDN'T have their stuff in with all the Legacies, and before you call me a troll, that is not a dig at F9, that is just the reality of the industry that we are in. However, many of the folks in the GO live in a different reality than the rest of us.
