Frontier even pays for hotels now. Hard sell leaving a regional making nearly double to go broke paying for hotels in training… not a logical airline to go fly for, going to be a really hard time hiring people with regional pay rates and minimal hospitality being offered for training like everyone else offers.

The hotels should be paid for, absolutely. But this is not a long term solution for regionals. The well will dry up and you’d love another shot at that seniority number when it does.

Are there any rumors of increased pay rates or hotels provided during training? $81/hour is the lowest of all the majors.

besides living in Hawaii what are the big perks for flying for Hawaiian compared to the big 3?

Have to add the extra 10k signing bonus too. Other than that, not much else to offer.

We are all waiting to see how this Amazon deal works out. The one thing we are all waiting on is the domicile for it. We are expecting captain to go fairly junior on 330 for the freighter side.

Equipment is good, always clean.

FA's are top notch, hard working. Gate agents, not so much.

Unless doing 717, you'll likely talk on the radios for :45.. Hit that CPDLC button once and veg out for 4 hrs until it's time to land.

Pretty much all VFR flying for a majority of the year.. You may hit a 500' overcast ceiling once a year.

Most likely short upgrade times for the next few years atleast.

Living in Hawaii can be a perk OR a negative. Especially when you see your peers at other airlines in a 4000sqft pool home, with a boat and a lake house while you're paying $1.3million+ for a home that would maybe cost $200k everywhere else. Then there are the schools, homeless, and infrastructure.
