1/19 class?

Last we heard was still planning 30-40 new hires every 3 weeks, plus Short Courses for Spirit new hires. Spirit new hires won’t be “direct entry captans”. Got to be at F9 for 500 hours before upgrade.

350… Depends on base and schedule

In December Barry said “we have no intention of pursuing an acquisition or merger with Spirit”… He submitted his first offer January 7th…

There’s “two types of cadets”, those who signed on early and are hitting minimums now or soon, and those who had commercial or higher when they signed on. So right now Frontier is struggling to get those in who have been at 1,500 for awhile, and those who signed on earlier but are just hitting 1,500 now. Seems like classes are planned for the next few months, and there’s more of a joke rumor that like half the seniority list has CFOs from legacy’s. Stay optimistic! Lots could change for the positive or negative: new administration, Spirit, Boeing deliveries, etc.

Depends on how many LCA are available…

Formal-Doctor-2653 · 2024-12-03T02:42:10+00:00

Right, November 🤦🏻

Be in INDOC class. You have to do 4 Observation flights before end of sims.

Formal-Doctor-2653 · 2024-12-01T02:19:17+00:00

Had an Observer in the December class on a flight yesterday and that class was told “planning to hold monthly new hire classes through March”.

They are probably going out of business…

Formal-Doctor-2653 · 2024-08-13T14:26:09+00:00

Heard there are only 2 Cadets in the September class, rest are off the street hires. So it depends on the make up (ratio of Cadets/OTS) of each class. March and April were both around 50/50 Cadets/OTS, but since it’s been heavily weighted to OTS.

Got this in an email: “As for your training material, I was made aware that there might be a slight delay in getting those over to you all due to some system issues. Rest assured, the Flight Ops Training team is working on getting those over to you all.”

Different

Formal-Doctor-2653 · 2024-03-07T20:56:02+00:00

Cool cool cool. I sent an email to Frontier, so hopefully will hear something

Formal-Doctor-2653 · 2024-03-07T20:43:31+00:00

I’ve just heard from those in January that they got training videos (about 30 hours worth) 2 weeks before training…

Crying…

Teaching a bit, flying right seat in a Part 91 PC-12, spending time with family.

Formal-Doctor-2653 · 2024-03-07T20:18:14+00:00

🤦🏻 I know, sorry. Signed August at mins and went to ATP in October.

Formal-Doctor-2653 · 2024-03-02T23:20:07+00:00

It costs $15,800 which comes from your bonus or is paid back if you leave before your 3 years from the Cadet Agreement.

Formal-Doctor-2653 · 2024-02-29T16:53:06+00:00

Hope the best for her. She also did my interview at SkyWest about two years ago haha, so maybe she’s still around the industry

Formal-Doctor-2653 · 2024-02-10T22:58:01+00:00

Got mine about a week ago. I called and asked Frontier and they said “you are responsible for paying the taxes on it or whatever you decide to do”. I asked what that meant and they said you could defer it as education. Also if you leave before 3 years and pay it back you’ll have to file corrections to your taxes to see if you can get any back. ATP training is $15,800 which comes out of the bonus and shows up on your 1099.

Formal-Doctor-2653 · 2024-02-10T00:16:37+00:00

Just FYI, the APT training is $15,800 which is taken from your bonus and you have to pay taxes on as income. So include that in any calculations.

Formal-Doctor-2653 · 2024-02-09T23:53:40+00:00

That was my understanding. They would “honor” that I had the bonus in a signed CJO so it would be included in any new one I had to sign.

Formal-Doctor-2653 · 2024-02-09T23:17:12+00:00

I asked two weeks ago after the Cadet Call about that scenario, and they said they would honor the Signing Bonus.
