Hello everyone,
I am joining Allegaint in February. The reason to joint Allegaint is that I would be at home every day. Also I want to know about ABE base. When ll I get it . Also do they tell me during training about my base or not ? Please anyone can explain it to me .I am new to this system.

I'm sorry, but you'd have the be very low experience, lazy, or not intelligent to come to G4 right now. If you're low time, go to a regional that has a base in EWR or PHL then go to UA or AA.

It's sitting at a three year upgrade. It stays Junior because United and Delta do have bases down the road.
I think you know which base you are getting in the first few days of indoc.

It looks like there could be one vacancy offered to your class, you might want to advocate for yourself with your classmates if people with the better social security number are thinking about taking it and they don't live there, because if you don't get the one that's offered to your class it's minimum five months until you will get it.

Exactly. Zero upgrades for sure until a contract is in place, which will take years according to the union's last update. And once a new contract is in place, assuming it is industry standard, some senior FOs may choose to finally upgrade.

The union just admitted that the company is likely to shrink to 500 pilots (some of us have been saying this for years, glad the union finally admits it). That means half the current captains are facing downgrade.
Every person that will ever be a captain at this airline has already been hired. There is no upgrade time.

2023 Planned Hiring
DAL 2400
UAL 2500-3000
AA 2000
WN 2200
= 9,600
Legacy hiring 500+ G4 pilots in the next 12-18 months is very realistic. Once the downgrades start here it will be very hard to stop the momentum.
Peak legacy retirements aren't until 2026 and don't taper off until 2035 so we are still early in the wave. It was a good run here for some of us but it's time for the next chapter.

Anyone who listened carefully to what the EXCO was saying the past year and isn’t willing to sell themselves short to be home every night - they’ve already left or have applied. All these guys just now supposedly submitting PRIA requests & updating their logbooks - I’ll believe when I see it. Most of these folks aren’t leaving unless their base closes.
