June class got it sprung on them the last day of ground school. Everyone was getting ready to go catch flights home and had to listen to the CP tell them how great Frontier is as they read over and signed the contract.

If the communication is lacking volunteer for the F9 pilot group in some capacity. I am glad to hear that you are emotionally and financially prepared for a strike because that is what I see for your future.

The B team? When are LEC elections and put in somebody that is part of your "A" team. That is what I meant about bottom up structure. Anyways - I will be on your picket line whenever I am called - first coffee or beer is on me.
Fascinating, United huh? Maybe someone can get the actual story about the Frontier, United merger of 86. I figure the only reason ALPA made it on to the property was that pretty much all of the old crews are long gone. But there's a lot of us who would cross any United picket line with no hesitation. I know it was a long time ago but a lot of us feel the United MEC purposely derailed the merger attempt by demanding an unacceptable pay package. One lesson we took away was that ALPA will always follow the money, ie; the airline with the most revenue.

Wrong Frontier. You're thinking of the original Frontier that was aquired by people express.

I wasn't even flying back then, but I think Roundup is talking about the same Frontier.

Old Frontier is UAL now anyways - just took a little longer.

You would cross a picket line? I have no further use for you....

I live in Denver and I am very interested in Frontier. What type of qualifications does it take to get the phone call?

The minimums listed in the careers section of our website. We hire people right at those minimums, and people well above them. Also if you don't have a "silver bullet" internal rec, going to a job fair seems to help. GL.

That's not a contract. A contract can not be entered into when one party is forced to sign under duress. You might have to take it all the way, but in the end you would prevail in my opinion. You likely can get compensatory damages from your costs if it comes to taking it all the way.
