I have an interview scheduled in September. What is your training like? Are you guys AQP? I haven't been able to find any pairings but I'm assuming most of your trips are 2-4 legs. Lastly what do you think of your health insurance?

~650 TPIC
Thanks

-Yes, 2 to 4 leg day trips.
Health care now, is whatever the UPS truck drivers have, I think.

I've done some reading back to prior to the TA and have a few questions:
1. If the virtual base is awarded, I read that you bid monthly on where you want to go for the next month. Does that mean for that month you are based at one of the other bases or spend the month being basically "home based" and commercialed to wherever you are needed? i.e. one month you can be based in LAS and the next FLL? I read its positive spaced to/from, does that mean for each trip or once at the beginning of the trip and once at the end?
2. What are the typical report times and end times for CVG?
I have a 121/135 background and live very near CVG and would look for that base, I read on the profile that it may grow, any info on that?
Thanks,
Aubie

You bid your preference but you will be assigned by seniority for VBD, could be any base in the system. You are only positive spaced to and from that base once during the month. All other days off you are on your own to jumpseat or stay put.
CVG is supposed to grow. It isn't that senior yet, but it could take a few months to get based there after training. Simply go to our website at allegiantair.com and you can see the city pairings from CVG and when they depart.

Life at Allegiant
Can those who have been at Allegiant for a while speak to the corporate culture of the company? I'm strongly considering putting my application in but I feel like I need more inside information on what its really like day to day flying the line and interacting with management. Are the pilots generally happy working for Allegiant? Give me the good, the bad and the ugly, so to speak. Much appreciated,
Don

Corporate culture. I like this one. Combative, duplicitous and generally adversarial. With fleeting bouts of detente. It's called an airline. We have what all pilots have, a business relationship nothing more. Nothing less. Look no further than the father of once touchy-feely, LUV me no more, southwestern cowgirls gone wild. There’re all the same.
