Window:

Furloughed pilots get paid zero. My point was that ANY increase in flying means jobs for pilots who are either currently not flying at all, or who have taken a job that is far worse than what Republic offers.
If someoen isn't interested, that is their perogative...but I suspect that many of those who lost their jobs to Republic will be happy to fly there , especially if the SLI involves recognition of longevity.

Try to show some patience. Still working on the contract. If that outcome is not up to standards then we can talk. We need to stop just looking at what's going on today and look at what steps are being taken to make tomorrow better. It's the outlook that matters right now and if Frontier will ever join the ranks progress can finally be made.

I do hate them.

Lets talk in three - five years when every bus is gone.

Lets see in 3 to 5 years I can predict the Airbus fleet will be changed a bit because of the large order of similar sized C series coming online then. And in that same time frame you will still be an FO flying that hulking pile of garbage around, still miserable and wishing your company would do something out side the box.

Let the RAH guys worry about their career and you worry about yours. It does no good what so ever to "hate" another airline. This middle school mentality is getting old FAST!

Nobody that I have talked to here has any want to be on the bus. Just another emotional brainfart from someone in an obsolete position. Grow up

lets hope this big order for 100seat jets gives Delta/ alpa a wake-up call to cancel the code share agreement with chataqua and shuttle america for scope violation'...pull the plug on the 24 emb-145 and 16 emb-175....let comair, skywest, compass, asa, pinnacle, mesaba...pick up that flying...

You sure you want to stick with that blanket statement Monkey? We could have saved a lot of time in the arbitration if we had that in writing.

Yea, I do. I'm sure there's a handful of nitwits here that want it but from what I have heard from the guys I've asked, they could care less about Airbii.
Guys upgrading to the bus is not the #1 issue at the heart of the arbitration
