This is awesome. A captain taking care of his passengers. Great for him!

I related news, the pizza was delivered by a furloughed pilot.

I related news, the pizza was delivered by a current pilot.

FIFY

Good stuff!

So I have to buy pizza for my passengers and beer for my new hire first officers? This captain thing is going to be expensive.

Sooooooo,

How did the pizza actually get to this airplane?

I related news, the pizza was delivered by a regional pilot.

Really FIFY.

When/if I get to put on the fourth stripe, I'm buying the first round for the FO and FA(s).

The rest of the pilots at Frontier are probably pi$$ed, now that the bar has been established....

Especially at tax time.

What? No gluten free option? Get me a lawyer!

Maybe the pilot from the MMMTO thread will be making more money by downgrading into the 787 after all...

I've actually done this before. We got stuck in New Bern for about 3 hours once, waiting for a part to arrive from Charlotte. I called my CP and asked if I could and he said go for it. I think it was 12 pizzas total. I had a reimbursement check in my Vfile within 2 days.

EDIT: This is how Frontier used to be before they got the crap kicked out of them with the Republic buyout.

Forcing them to eat the cardboard masquerading as pizza that Domino's provides is considered a war crime in some countries.

But hey, if it makes the passengers happy, it's all good.

Id do this but it would have be from Little Cae$ar$.

Frontier needs to bring back those damn cookies.

Frontier needs to bring back those damn cookies.

Now they'd be $3 if you pay for them at time of booking, $5 if you wait until you're on the plane.
