“In speaking about synergies of the proposed merger, we are pleased to hear that the Frontier and Spirit CEOs Barry Biffle and Ted Christie recognize the need for the merged pilots’ contract to be on par with the pilots who fly for the mainline carriers.
“Pilots have many career options. Spirit and Frontier pilots who are currently contemplating their career choices in this hot hiring market are pleased to know that our CEOs understand that pilot compensation needs to be in line with the top of the industry in order to attract quality pilot candidates and that this will be critical to the success of our combined carrier.”
