Tyler and all.... I'm curious. What kind of relationship did you envision we would have during contract negotiations? You say you're senior... So you were well informed during the IBT roadshows that if we went down this path it was going to get ugly....and they were right.

It befuddles me when I read the comments on here. W T F did you expect?? Go ask the Alaska guys what life was like during their prolonged negotiations and arbitrator imposed pay cuts. Go do a little research and take a pilot contract 101 class. Nothing is happening on this property that hasn't happened elsewhere.

Yes, a half dozen senior guys have left. I have plenty of people above me and I've barely moved in the last 2 years.

You can't compare Allegiant to Jetblue IQuit? Plenty of Jetbluers would disagree. We've even had a few leave JB to come here in the past year.

Life sucks here right now for most. I'm not saying otherwise.... I'm just saying that if you didn't expect this course of action when we voted in the IBT, then you're not very aware of your industry.
