They’re having slight delays with the leap engines and with that we’re returning more planes then what we are receiving until spring/mid 2018. So I’m not surprised, we’re staffed accordingly. The planes being returned that we “might renegotiate leasing contracts” are all scheduled for the paint shops and are heading to Asia.

That's not quite true... With some bonuses and if Endeavor passes their TA, regionals may end up paying MORE

It looks like our application window is open again. Did we run a class in November?

You can kiss goodbye any chance of us growing in 2018, even if they mysteriously pick up some unwanted Airbus deliveries, from Virgin or anywhere else.
Don't new hires have a 2 year training contract?

1st year pay at United is $46/hr greater than Frontier ($85 vs. $39).

2nd year pay at United is between $77 to $83/hr greater than Frontier
($125/131 vs. $68, depending on equipment at UAL).

Now if you’ve been at Frontier for 1-2 years, you’ll have to consider pay going forward for years 3&4, etc.

But the point is, you can afford to pay the training contract and still come out ahead by going to United.

FYI... I heard from a guy who knows a guy that Frontier is expecting about 70-75 new hires and about 25-30 upgrades in 2018.

That might not even cover attrition. It’s going to be an interesting year or two.

Very true that it won't cover the attrition, UNLESS we sign a contract.

Wishful thinking on my part
