BLI- the most senior base in the system - you might slip in right at the bottom but won't move up much and upgrade will be
a decade +.

Read through the thread so you understand what being junior at Allegiant means. You want to get somewhere you can move up fast, and don't upgrade for several years regardless if you have the seniority unless you want to be junior again.

As for the last, I've always been of the opinion you (pilot group, union) don't play the safety card in the media. I'm obviously in the minority.
