Doesn't seem to be a problem. At my regional we lost approximately 12 pilots to allegiant alone last month. I think majority are fo's going there. Many view it as a place to fly a larger plane to look better for other majors. It's additional rating to the resume. It also could be that allegiant bases work better for them. I know for our 6-7 year fo's upgrade may not happen for a very long time. Being an fo at allegiant is a lateral if not vertical move in the better direction. I will say work rules at my company are better than what I've seen in the agreement that was provided for you all, but some guys feel it's what works best for them.
