Looking for Frontier info
 
For those getting interviews: what are your times like?

My class (12 people) had a wide variety of experience levels. A couple 747 guys, a couple Great Lakes guys, a good number of RJ guys (and gal.) Lowest TT was about 3000hrs. High time must have been about 10,000.

Internal rec is really important, and most of the people that got hired live in Colorado

How do we ket them know we are from the Colorado area? I was born and raised there, also lived in Utah but now live in Texas. I would love to move back to Colorado in a heart beat.

Is it just the email the resume application to apply to frontier? I would love to work for them, just trying to get noticed!!!!

A solid cover letter is a good place to start.

That sounds like a solid resume. The internal rec is huge. Ask the internal rec to help you out. This place really likes to hire guys with internal recs. I think in my class of 12 has maybe 10 or 11 had internal recs or "silver bullets."

First week of training is in the history books and this being my third airline indoc, I must say I'm extremely impressed! Amazing "family" of people from the CEO and Chief Pilot to the ramp staff. Ground school instructors are awesome and they've made bearable that which is usually inspiring of suicide!

That is good to hear. Welcome aboard.

Virtually everyone at F9 has been through hell and back and things are looking promising for the first time in a long while. Obviously the big boys are hiring en masse, but getting an opportunity at Frontier isn't the worst thing to happen to a guy/gal.

Best of luck to everyone applying. It is going to be an interesting couple of years.

You'll find that holds true throughout training, good people and no trickery. I'm curious how they jammed another 8 people into that classroom, 12 people was comfortable but 20 people would be quite cozy. Anyway, good to hear you're liking the experience.

Welcome aboard guys/gals. Just a word or caution, management at F9 could care less about the employee group just like most other airlines. It is a decent place to work because of the employees. We've been through more management in the last 6 years than Berkshire Hathaway has been though in its entire existence.
