Where are the new hires recommended to stay during training since the company doesn't pay. Seems like that is an easy $2k+ added to the budget. Although, making $34k the first year helps one afford it, right?

Wow. You might want to rethink your attitude before showing up for class...or just not show up at all.

Why? First year pay is a joke. That's exactly the attitude I'd like our new hires to have. They don't owe the company anything. Show up, get some Airbus time, and punch out at the first opportunity. Don't forget to shred the training contract on the way out either because it's not worth the paper it's written on.

If you subtract the training contract amount from first year pay at some of the legacies, you would still earn more than a 1st year FO at F9. That's just a mathematical fact, not spoken out of bitterness or resentment

Agreed. If we can't have guys just no-showing for class, the next best alternative is guys that are ****ed about first year pay (and all pay, for that matter).

The best fire has a hot bed of coals. There's no attitude in his/her observation- just numbers. That's exactly what we need in the new hire classes, not people who are happy to fly 230-seat airplanes at a 20+% profit margin for $25k take home pay. Remove the emotion from your responses. Flying for Frontier is a business transaction- nothing more, nothing less.

Wait, new hires aren't provided with a hotel room during training?

No, and they moved ground school to the SSS simulator building. There are no hotels are around that so it pretty much assures you will have to get a rental car in addition to a hotel room.
