3. Understand anything west will take years to get to. But what is the junior west base? Any timeframe closer than just a blanket "years" to hold the junior west base? And how often can you change bases?
4. I have seen several articles stating more Airbus aircraft are coming. Are these aircraft replacements or growth?
5. For guys getting calls to interview. How long is it normally taking from app to first contact?
I've read through all of the threads on here about Allegiant but could not find answers to these.
Thanks
1. Answered
2. The latest and greatest is Aug 2013 upgrades.
3. LAS, 1 month on the line(12/13), right out of class in Jan or May class? You'll be TDY'd though..
4. Addition. From what I've read. 53 MD80s through 2018; the Bus is additional.
5. Too fluid to tell. Timing is everything.
