Does frontier pay for housing while in training? Or does one have to figure out where to stay for the couple months?

It's on you. Hotel next door has rooms blocked, $60 for singles and 80 for doubles... I believe

Not really sure what you mean. Any pilot of a CASS participating airline can ride in the cabin of another for free on domestic flights. If you want your family riding on other carriers then it's ZED. No special agreement beyond that.

Omg, serious? $2500 in hotel costs to work here? Thought those days were over with all over the place.

Really! Stay at your regional!

Unfortunately, this exists at all levels. Compass, Frontier, Delta (sims)...

Regarding pass travel, check pm.

The F9 contract was built on an airline that was based solely in DEN and all crews were based in DEN. Hotel during training was not a top priority.

^^^^ exactly.

Guess it would be cheaper renting a furnished apartment month to month. Lots of those in DFW for 800-1k/ month. DEN can't be that different.

Oh well. Cost of leaving a stagnant FO position at my regional
