And another small base with zero chance of lasting more than a few years before they decide to close it down. JAX makes zero sense other than to temporarily relieve aircraft parking in the other Florida bases. Once those bases finish their terminal expansions (PIE, SFB, PGD) then say bye bye JAX.
It's not a vacation destination and we don't serve tons of markets from there.
Don't come here expecting it to last.

We won't be released, we're probably going to have a sub-standard TA now within the next 3-6mo. Maury wants it done, that's why Steve is gone.

No chance at realse. TAd 3 more sections 2 weeks ago and more meetings for the next 3 months. Lots heavy sections left so it's going to be a while and I doubt we will see a vote in the next 6 months. It would be a very bad move for the union to send a substandard contract to vote only to get voted down.

I'm not so sure about that... There are a ton of flights on mainline and various regionals in and out of JAX about every 30 mins to an hour. All loads are usually full. I think with the right vacation destinations, an Allegiant base would do well. And they have heavy Mx on site.

Yes, you mean VQQ? I think that's what it is... Been a while since I've flown around the area.

Allegiant Maintenance Full Page Ad
I live in LAS, so I usually notice Allegiant news in the Las Vegas Review Journal. Since I'm out on a trip, I don't know if Maury Gallagher & company spent their publicity dollars in the "home town" this Sunday. But they dropped some cash in today's edition of the Honolulu Star Advertiser (which if you don't know, is "the" newspaper, not a curbside handout like its name might imply). I'd post a pic, but I'm fumbling to get the file size small enough.
It's a full page spread, signed by "Your Friends At Allegiant," the maintenance professionals who go on to describe their commitment to company, community and safety. Not chump change, I'm sure. There must be a perceived PR problem, at least in Hawaii.
