Considering Frontier's payrates for Captain top out at about 6th year narrowbody FO payrates at UA, I think I know where they would end up.

Then you wouldn't need to worry about a fence!

I was under the impression a stable job between two ALPA carriers isn't possible.

I don't see a merger happening any time soon at UA. Definitely not Frontier. DOT would take issue with the United monopoly in Denver. Last I heard UA already had 40% of DEN flights and SW had 33%.

On anther note, all things 787 now has a UA delivery date for the 787-10 in 08/18! Now, if we could just get a replacement for our aging 737-700's and 319's. Maybe 50 of the technologically superior CS 300's? Also, let's go ahead and trade out of the 100 Max 10's for 100 797's and buy 100 A-321NEO's. United, PM me if you need help with the fleet plan. I'm here to help.

I know the LCC guys are salivating at the idea of coming in as a senior WB Capt. I think the #1 JB pilot is what a 2000 hire? I don't think an LCC or ULCC SLI isn't something we really want right now. Curious to see how the VA/AK SLI shakes out.

The Northwest-Republic merger would be a good read before any salivating starts.

If we ever see it. They need a contract 1st and its going to take a LONG time for Alaska management to agree to a contract. They'll fly the groups separate and play them off each other like they do Horizon/Alaska pilots.

If UAL bought Allegiant would they have to fire Ca Alex again? Apparently threating to kill your FO with your brand new H&K .40 FFDO weapon isn't that funny of a "joke" after all.

It's my understanding Frontier only has six gates in Denver now. They spread their network out over multiple domiciles and satellite hubs a couple years ago. Buying them wouldn't mean a Denver monopoly.
