Too bad your retirement finances won't.

Or are you the "I am already a CA, so who cares" type?

Did you finish off your breakfast with a "no profit sharing" chaser?

We should all be ashamed of ourselves.

For a new hire. Yeah. In fact if I were starting out I think F9 has an edge. 8 years of being a Capt is worth a lot of money.

One concern I would have in being a junior CA at Frontier is their average duty guarantee of 5 hours. The earning potential is probably equal when you compare a junior 190 Jetblue CA and a junior Frontier CA flying mostly 10 hour/3 days. Not saying Jetblue’s contract is perfect, but not having a daily guarantee would personally give me pause.

We have a better contract (well accept our 190 pay is much lower than their Airbus pay), they have faster seniority movement and growth.

So yeah as a new hire starting out I think it would be a tough call.
