I'm hearing rumblings from several sources that folks leaving for greener pastures are being shown the door immediately after giving a two-week notice. Apparently, they are making it an immediate termination, requesting badge etc be sent in, pulling CASS, and not paying min guarantee or trip credits for the two-weeks that would have been worked. Supposedly they are doing some other low-brow things with final paychecks but letting people go to avoid two-weeks of pay is a sizeable chunk. Has anyone had recent experience that can confirm or deny this?

My last day was in May and the process was pretty straightforward. A response was sent to my company email with instructions on when to send your badge and iPad back. It says 7 days after your last day is when everything needs to be mailed.

So you were able to fly out your two-weeks notice period? CA or FO?

They did this back in 2021 too so it is no surprise if they are doing it again.

Buddy of mine who left last never even got a reply to his resignation letter.

First Officer and that's correct, my schedule remained the same until I left.

I resigned earlier this year and Frontier could not have been more professional about it. No issues at all.

So, prepare for this.

If it happens, you're prepared. If F9 lets you fly until your 2 weeks is up and pays you accordingly, bonus.

Either way - bye. Best of luck and I do mean that sincerely. Despite being elsewhere, you are still a brother (sister) in arms.

Post in your new airline blog.

I have factual information that a recent resignation, 3 year-ish FO, (he sent a 2-week notice via email send by resigning pilot to ALL chiefs, as one often will fill-in while another is out) was met with a moderate email attempt by a Frontier Chief which asked the person resigning to reconsider but nonetheless of course "allowed" the guy to resign.

Dropped all trips, called in sick, also a possible commuter miss, his last final two weeks at Frontier.

Handled (pretty) professionally and the only downside is the resignee had to stalk Frontier to figure out how to turn in his ID and Ipad. He sent some "thank you" emails to the well liked training check airmen (Frank S, etc) and even sent a "thanks for the opportunity" email to R.R., who interviewed him years ago.

PRIA records sent from Frontier, to the new carrier, were clean as a whistle.

In big corporate America, employees resign, and if handled professionally by the employee, the employer will respond accordingly in most all cases.
