Frontier is a high school airline so this fits perfectly.

Big Bus don't know what he's talking about
Any idea if they got bases yet like the Sep class did? Thanks for the info!

Wow, the Vegas lines next month are rough. I know it’s a new base and all but just shows how important min calendar day pay is for the next contract.

I've read more post over the years that are negative, pessimistic, and "sky is falling" than I can count.

BLUF; would those who are at Frontier now recommend going to a regional vs Frontier? Is it really that bad? It seems to me that with the eventuality that a contract WILL be reached, Frontier is a better place to be if given the opportunity. At the end of the day, there will be a new contract, you are flying better equipment, and pay/benefits/work rules will be competitive with other LCCs. Everyone is in negotiations now so positive changes will be coming.

Don't you truly think it's going to get better in the next 3-5 years?

Max days off lines
4 lines with -14 days off
9 lines with 13 days off
Rest of them 12 days off

There's a red eye from Vegas to Denver - leave @0130 land Denver at 0430 - 25 hour layover ...

Most lines are not commutable on one end. But you can always nap on one of the three metal chairs in the temporary crew room while you wait for your commuting flight the next morning ... it's about 120
Sq ft . And gets crowded with 6 people.

Ouch... Hopefully that improves as they add crews. That sounds pretty brutal.

They have a large crew room under the gates that will be open by November 21st supposedly. Mad max is right, the room is a closet right now.

Yes they are in the process of the new crew room. But they knew about this base a long time ago - and it should have been up and running for the base opening. Frontier is a Major Airline. Can you imagine sitting "couch reserve" as an FA in the closet ?
