Exactly. Your carriers like Sun Country, Spirit, Allegiant and Frontier with their poor contracts, lack of stability, crushing debt and overall lack of viability are seriously struggling to attract even bottom of the barrel applicants. I expect this to perpetuate in the future and thus the reason Sun Country is pulling out all the stops going after these private pilots with zero experience training them essentially from zero to hero since no one else is interested in working at these outfits.
Guess you missed the fact that I work for American Airlines. Yes, I'm on the AA side but....if I were to still be on the Envoy side, I would still work for....American Airlines. That's how it is structured now. Our Envoy colleagues are every bit AA as we are. Same uniforms, NN numbered airplanes, Jetnet, DECS, same payroll company, AA management structure, etc. I could go on but I've always said that and haven't changed my tune one iota since the new American took over and essentially morphed Envoy into AA.
And the 900's at PSA.So Compass was really AA then too…their planes were NN numbered (minus 207/208AN)

Since we can't seem to kill it and can't stop it from marketing itself, can we just automate all the airplanes already, and allow this avi-education industrial complex to die a "natural" death by starvation?ATP Flight School and Sun Country Airlines Partner Up in Search for Pilots - FLYING Magazine
As US airlines continue their search for enough cockpit crewmembers to fill both current and future demand, ATP Flight School and Sun Country Airlines just announced a pilot hiring partnership to create a direct pathway for ATP graduates to join the Minneapolis-based airline as Boeing 737 first...www.flyingmag.com
There you have it. Now you can go from ERAU to Frontier or should you prefer Boeing, ATP to Sun Country.
On the one hand I think "how low can you go." On the other hand I suppose it's still better than MPL.
No idea now, but pre-pan Frontier seemed to be attracting good folks and upgrading their contract. Don't know anything about the others.Exactly.

All MAXs! ... MCAS is what makes those 37s Flow Ready!Soooooo, do the new “regionals” just have 737s (looking at you too Prime Air) instead of RJs?
There is an entire Facebook group devoted to such deviant content.What about an American nosecone on a Delta bird?

Hilariously, I’ve lived under both the Envoy Air (though it wasn’t called that, then) and a “garbage ULCC” CBA.Hey, keyboard warrior,
How about you do your research before you spew more garbage. What you just said is 100% incorrect.

I only extended a job offer to 1 CFI in the last 5 that I have interviewed. The funny thing is, all 4 that got rejected couldn't even pass a PPL checkride. 2 of the 4 were from ATP. You wanna know the funny thing, both ATP CFI's didn't give a rats ass that they didn't know enough to pass a PPL checkride after I told them. The look on their faces was one of "IDGAF, after this, I'm just going to go home to my parents home and keep living rent free and make more posts on IG about how cool I am that I'm a CFI now". Entitlement and narcissism is an all time high in society rn.

Guess which one isn’t garbage?
Toooooo beeeeee faaaaaaaaaaaaaaair!I totally agree. However, our ULCC garbage contract is a lot closer to being an actual ULCC garbage contract then your ULCC "garbage contract."
Oh, I know jack all right and much more. I can tell you that those carriers might look attractive on the outside to a particular set of applicants but it's like a pig. You can give a pig a bath, dress him up nicely and apply some cologne or perfume but it doesn't change the fact that he is still....a pig.
I know the pay numbers and contracts for these carriers pretty well and can see they can't hold a candle to American Airlines. AA is the largest major airline IN THE WORLD. Why anyone would pass up a career if they had half a chance at AA just tells me that the person has a screw loose somewhere. Yes, unfortunately these people do exist but the good thing is, the facade they put on to get in the door at AA has been revealed and it's really good riddance at this point.
When all deliveries are complete, and assuming Frontier chooses to retain most of its Airbus A320ceo family of aircraft, save for the Airbus A319s it is retiring, then Frontier will have nearly 260 aircraft in its fleet, meaning it will over double in size.
As long as it's Miramar calling the shots, yes.Can we just merge already?
