American gives you more than $2,000 per month and a free hotel during training. American Airlines second year pay is also almost $20 per hour higher and has way better travel benefits. They also have a higher MMG and better retirement. You can't even begin to compare American to Allegiant. My regional is actually better by far in many ways. I'm going to wait for something better. I can't take care of a family of 4 on Allegiant pay. I'm sure pay at Allegiant would be good down the road. I need better money than they can offer today though.
