A PM or response would be appreciated, thanks guys/gals.
1. Quite possible but you could also get the TDY base; depends on your seniority within your class (it's by age).

2. Day trips only.

All the above subject of course to how events play out over the next several months.

You're not willing to read through 200 pages to get a job or make a job decision?

Yeah, if just reading through 200 pages is too much work, then I would avoid G4 like the plague. You will work like you never have before if you go to AAY.

Oh brother..... pilots really are their own worse enemy. Starve the beast, AAG will not bend unless it's brought to it's knees by it's labor.
Continuing to offer up "fresh meat" to exploit just prolongs the process that needs to occur.

LOL. Well all these warm and fuzzies make me feel super invited when I couldn't find answers to two simple questions through pages of bs. Guess I'll get back to my toilet reading through your 200 pages of garbage.

Good luck on that contract fellas.

Don't despair Allegiant pilots! Even though some guys can't be bothered, word is spreading. I recently retired from USAF service to the LAS area, and thought it would be exciting to fly/work for a small growing company whose HQ is about two miles from my house. I didn't even mind that I'd get paid less than at a legacy. Then...

I read through this ENTIRE thread. Afterwards, I figured I'd be better off at a Regional like Compass in the short term if need be (I like seeing my family regularly). Luckily, I'm about to go off to training with UAL and I'll thank God for it every time I drive past your HQ. I passed along my job search Lessons Learned to a retiring USN buddy of mine... and he'd already heard all about your "deal".

To any Management Trolls following this thread - How are you guys going to maintain the growth rate needed to support a 40 PE ratio while your hiring pool evaporates and your junior pilots bail as fast as you train them? Spirit is trading at a mere 24 PE with no potential strike looming. Sell Mortimer!!!

Good luck guys, it looks to me like a strike is inevitable. I hope you finally get a fair contract that is actually honored by management, you've earned as much.

Don't apply here. The same 2 questions have been asked and answered about every 5th page. You're lazy and uninvolved.

Oh I think the answers are in there every five or six pages. Those are questions that are asked and answered a lot.

If you can't be bothered to read about what's really happening at Allegiant from people that work for Allegiant, you are just the kind of pilot our management would love to have!
