Why don't take the time to actually read the threads instead of having the information just spoon-fed to you??

A320 - JFK, BOS, LAX (Last class did not receive BOS as an option)
E190 - JFK, BOS
A220 - BOS (only base currently for 220)
QOL is very dependent on what you want. If you wanna be home every night allegiant has a better quality of life. If you want a guaranteed block of days off then spirt is for you. Don’t know much about frontier.
Reading here the 190 is the mostly backed up with training and the training pay is not very good.
Someone actually in training may have better answers.

I fly with instructors doing their fly days regularly…when they actually let them fly….and all I hear is how the school house is falling apart and they’ll never have a prayer in doing the training they think they are going to get through this year.

190 training is falling off the rails right now. I was assigned recurrent 3 months early from last year only for them to cancel it and they still haven’t updated me. I think they are intentionally doing that knowing full well the $..t is going to hit the fan and hoping they’ll be get you in at some point before you dequalify.

They put together a $4.5 BILLION dollar package to aquire VA in a few weeks. They can preemptively agree to an amazing contract in the same timeframe, if they wanted.

Should be no surprise. Allowing the current attrition without taking corrective action is going to be a staffing disaster.

Why put out more and make it legal with a contract when you can just throw in a few quarts of oil to replace what is getting burned rather than paying for an overhaul.

In the end the plane's are moving so attrition isn't that big of a problem. Just glancing at the VDA list for my base and seat, there are 10 guys staring at their phone's blank screen praying for it to ring with a NY number. That's in addition to the other Flica stalkers that will do it for 50% less when the little X pops up. In the end, flights are notoriously late which we know we are famous for but the people get there. Top brass get's their stock distributions worth millions as said in another post: '85,000 > RH , 55,555 > JG". The rest will get their bonuses, and we get to deal with the aftermath when somebody didn't bother to book you a hotel and you are standing in the terminal at 2am with the janitors staring at you while on hold and off the clock.

This is about more than being anti-pilot. This “management” team is just straight up incompetent. We’re running a scheduled service and on time performance isn’t even in their top 10 priorities. Easy fix though. Just blame all the “business partners” and the icy ramps. I’m actually starting to get a bit worried about our future.
