I have to agree with Squirrellforhire on this one. It is true we are an ULCC. Being an ULCC is nothing more than a business model. If passengers want to "un-bundle" our services for the chance to save money, I say great, go right ahead. However, I refuse to accept this applies to the services we offer as pilots. As a ULCC, we pay as much for fuel, parts and landing fees. Allegiant most certainly isn't getting a break from F&H due to our ULCC status. Pilots cost what they cost. ULCC status be damned; they are paying 320 captains over $300,000 a year in China at ULCC airlines.
Don't allow the business model to lower your expectations. If your attitude is that we aren't worth as much because of our business model, then please apply elsewhere.
