Do yourself a favor and don't cheap out. Go for at least 64gb min or 128gb.

The company reimburses you for it. Buy the 128gb. It's $424 on sale.

Agree. I have 32 and it is barely enough if I want to keep a movie or two on there incase I get a DH. Course I do have a fair amount of apps too. I wish I had gotten a 64. Next time.

Is 1 thing to want to move on to a major another getting the interview. I've been trying as best as I can and nothing so far. I would guess a lot of us would leave if able.

It sounds like you could possibly be new to Frontier and wondering if the 16 you currently own would be adequate, or if you should spend the money to invest in one with more memory?

If this is the case, congratulations!! And welcome to Frontier!

If you currently own a 16 and are wondering if it would be adequate, the answer is absolutely 'Yes'. (It is rumored that first year pay at Frontier could be subpar? Save a bit of money if you already own a 16G iPad, and pocket the stipend).

If you are in the buying mode, absolutely get one with more memory! I'd say, get as much as is available, and grow into it in the next few years.

I have a 32 gb air... it has all the frontier stuff on it and I keep a running tally of about 100 songs and 75 or so tv shows on it... I wish I had more but I got an external hard drive that has a little wifi signal so I have about 10 movies and 300 episodes on that beast... 16 gb is plenty for just the frontier stuff

Apparently, the FAA is requiring that iPads be no more than 3 years old. So when Frontier gives the $600, you need to buy a new one. And it has to be an Air 2 or better.

It will be a line check item. You can't use an ancient, crap iPad.

Where did you here or see this? I would like to confirm this before I go out and replace a perfectly good I Pad 4, that will be 3 years old on December.
