yes there are a lot of choices with the hiring taking place. While I believe it’s incredibly stupid of the company to not pay for hotel in training, it should not be a consideration for whether or not to come to F9. If frontier is the place you want to be, for whatever reason, then that money spent is just an investment to what you want.

I agree with this completely. I’m certainly not defending the company not providing lodging, but it doesn’t have to be the massive bankruptcy inducing burden that people make it out to be. I got in touch with people in my new hire class and 6 of us rented a house. It cost us each $350/month. Sure, it was $350 more than I would have liked to have spent, but it certainly didn’t break any of us. Because of the situation it was the most enjoyable, fun, and academically productive airline training experience I’ve ever had (and I have more than a few old uniforms hanging in my closet).

I’m not saying it isn’t worth it, I’m actually taking a hefty payout to come here, I wouldn’t do it otherwise

i wasn’t necessarily pinpointing you, it was just my two cents about the situation. We definitely need to fix the housing thing. I get doing a pay cut, I did as well. F9 may not be the best, but it’s not bad. I’m still happy to be here and I do believe better times are ahead. And welcome! You’re not making a bad decision
