Aero1900

Frontier is beginning contact negotiations now. We are in need of a much improved contact, no doubt. People that are interested in coming here can see beyond today's pay. A career is a long time, a contract is not. We could have an industry average or better contract in 2 years, and couple that with rapid growth and you could find a really good job here. You have to try looking more than 1 foot ahead of yourself.

2 year upgrades are still very possible for new hires

Better than industry average contract in two years? Good luck with that. Some of you are really drinking the Kool-Aid.

The only real career opportunity at Frontier is to be something other than a line pilot. Many pilots like 1900 have realized this and are pursuing a management position. The only way you get to any kind of a management position is to be a company cheerleader. You must carry the company water.

Some guy placed wooden coat hangars in the Airbus coat closets with "Thanks for a great 1st year" written in black Sharpie. I believe it was the same new hire who came in on a day off with a tube of Loctite to secure loose screws on our iPad mounts. Destined for management... The same new hire spent most of a 3 day trip trying to convince me the moisture raining down on the pilot group from management was, in fact, rain and not something else.

To say "a contract is not long term" is pure folly. I'm pretty sure most would agree that OUR contract IS long term. It just doesn't seem that way to 1900 because he's only been here 26 months.

To say that we may have an industry average contract in 2 years is pure folly. Nobody knows what will happen-and I'll admit that--but I fully expect our next contract will be TA'd at 11:59pm on day 30 of our cooling off period. Given the ridiculously long timeline established by the RLA bargaining process, this will take MANY years. Of course the alternative is that we could just be happy with a few minor tweaks to our existing piece of dung contract and we'll have bragging rights to achieving an agreement in sub-2-years.

Very random question here, did anyone else get the email for the open house April 8th in MCO?

I'm not one by any means who goes to the job fairs (comic-cons), but I live in the area so it seems a worthy visit. Any intel on what goes down here? Also what proper attire would be?

Thanks

Maybe the same thing you wore to get hired by your current employer.

Last year someone went to a Spirit job fair in a yellow suit. I'd try dressing up like this.

Maybe try to not use yellow if you want to work at frontier...

I say it again, it's far better to be sitting at any national carrier than at any regional. We all want to be at the big 3, I get it. Where would you rather wait at while it happens, what if it never happens???? Frontier will never be a Delta/American/United carrier, but it's not going to be a bad one either.
