F9 closing up shop?

[Quiet Flight]

Heard that Frontier will cease flying by 1 August. Anyone else hearing this?

 

[Gearmonkey]

Not that I've heard, I have a buddy interviewing there in a few days and it was still on as far as I know.

 

[flyprop]

I heard the same...120 million profit last year and 14% profit margin this year along with 101 A319/320/321s starting to arrive this fall. Yep they are for sure closing doors.

True! SWA is going to buy us!
Seriously DUDE!

 

[Bolo]

Just announced MCO as a new base. Lets move pilots to buy new homes out in MCO then purposely close the doors on August 1st to teach them a lesson!

Hey, I have property on Mars that I want to sell you for a good rate.

Did I mention SWA is buying us? Tape loop.

 

[Whine Lover]

Negative....Spirit is buying you.

No, It's Southwest pulling the plug August 1 st.

You should have taken G K's first offer.

Just Sayin!

That sounds about right.

I once got forced/displaced into an equipment lock into an airplane that only had one base. A bunch of us moved since the equipment lock was 2 years. 3 Days into systems ground school the company changed their mind and I got displaced to another A/C at another base. Had just signed a year lease and the contract only allowed for a one month buyout of leases. I commuted for 11 months from a city I never really wanted to live across 2 time zones. This all happened at a regional that was considered to have one of the top contracts at the time and a good mgt-pilot relationship.

PS- hope they're not closing up

If so, they'll be available to help with that Southwest strike committee.

 

[SWA Bubba]

If so, they'll be available to help with that Southwest strike committee.

Actually, if so, it'll be too bad for you. One less possible picket line that you could cross. Scab-wannabe.

Seems like it worked out well for Frontier even after turning down SWA. Who would have guessed.

 

[maru657]

Well Bubba, let's rationalize this. Your not part of a national union as a matter of fact your just an association. You can rationalize taking someone else's job through corporate maneuvering then don't expect any sympathy with your labor problems.

 

[St. Nic]

Frontier is done. Put a fork in that pig. Their out of money

Says the guy who doesn't know the difference between they're and their.

They said the same about US Airways many times so be careful.

Not sure who you think you're talking about, but whose job exactly are you alleging that I stole? Or are you just bitching about the SLI results again? Oh wait; are you one of those dumbasses who calls anyone who does something that they don't like "a scab"?

Buy a dictionary, or even ask Mr. ALPA (you know--PCL). Or perhaps you could just work in a unionized industry long enough to actually learn something about unionism. But for now, lemme help you out here: A scab is someone who performs legally struck work. Period. That's it. That's the only definition relative to unionism.

So to recap, pilots that you perceive as getting a better deal on an SLI then you did are NOT scabs. The cop who gave you a ticket is NOT a scab. The guy who diddled your wife is NOT a scab (although he may or may not be an ass). Your pilots who crossed the Eastern picket line to work ARE scabs. See how this works?

On the other hand, Maru has bragged that he would be "happy to cross a United picket line"; therefore he IS a scab-wannabe. If he actually had the opportunity, and actually did it, then he'd be an actual scab.

Lemme know if you have any more questions, okay? I'm here to help.
