Wow. Straight from BG himself: Allegiant wanted to get a flow with Compass (to round out the TSH ULCC flow program since Gojet has Spirit and TSH has Frontier). And we almost had a flow to HAL as well. Maybe there was more truth to those rumors than I thought...

Anyone else get the vibe that we turned down Allegiant flow because they felt it was "beneath" us?

I talked to one of the chiefs recently he pretty much said that’s exactly why. Rather have no flow than a sketchy flow. For example if we made a deal with Frontier it might do more harm than good

Personally? I’d love allegiant. Day trips and six figure FO pay sure beats this place

I agree that allegient isn't that bad of a gig anymore, but a flow there wouldn't be much use for most.

Just about to finish getting my 1,000 TPIC flying a PC-12. Think I’ll probably be able to bypass the regionals and go straight to a major. But while I wait for my call up I figure I’ll go to a regional for awhile. Problem is I don’t want to go to any regional that doesn’t have a flow. The market has been bullish for so long a major downturn could be right around the corner and I need to know I have that safetynet. Even if it’s just a flow like to sun country, allegiant or spirit. Oh guess I’ll just keep making 85k flying my Pilatus and get beemed up from here.
