It's cool. Spirit luckily felt differently.

What kind of interviewee/newhire pilot would honestly say they wouldn't leave the next month if UAL offered them a job?

Either a liar or a otherwise unhireable one.

Such a true statement, especially under the current contract. Very unfair question to ask.

It looks like they aren't even using the reserves and I don't know anyone who has gotten the JA call. Are they just giving up and saying @$?& it?

Seems kinda pointless to IPO a dysfunctional company.

My favorite Gordon Bethune quote: "you can make a pizza so cheap no one will eat it...you can also make an airline so cheap no one will fly it!"

I hope everyone enjoys their big slice of Frontier pizza! Happy holidays everyone!

I've been wondering the same thing. You would think all reserves would be flying, but most haven't flown all week.

It's a proven model to keep most d-bags, whiners and ego maniacs from joining the ranks. F9 may not have a lot going for it in the pay department at the moment, but it's still has an outstanding pilot group and that comes from selective hiring.

Very, very weird. A week later I got the TBNT.

A few weeks later, a F9 recruiter called me and asked if I was interested in interviewing. I said yes, but did you know I got turned down a few weeks earlier? He said he'd get back to me, but never did. Really unprofessional... This was in the summer of 2014, so maybe they're more realistic now.

I like the F9 pilot group, but your management are complete idiots.
