Is there any info you guys that are at Allegiant can give to us who are considering coming there? and before venting or saying 'dont' (the forums give a general idea of conditions there, etc) What is important is the current and proposed contract, and I have not found that info anywhere. Only current employees really have an idea of any of the specifics of what REALLY matter to an airline pilot- scheduling, health insurance, LTD/STD, vacation, sick calls, travel benefits both on Allegient and with other airlines. (compensation and retirement is covered on airline profile page) Thats the nuts and bolts that determine our lives and happiness....

Do days off improve with seniority, or is 10/11 fairly standard across the board? Maybe this varies widely depending on the seasonality of leisure travel?

What are the more junior/senior bases? this leads to question of realistic upgrade time. What would the difference be between say taking quickest possible upgrade (getting hired today) choosing no base/tdy versus waiting for a specific base Myrtle Beach or Tampa for instance, considering you may have made a home there?

Sorry for the long questionaire, but in trying to consider this place the REAL questions are not answered on the company website, or on here so much. Thanks for anyone taking the time to extend some information, it very well might make the difference in flying with someone somewhat content or preventing them from making a career mistake.
