My wife however is from the Tampa (Sarasota) area and all of her friends and family are there. Here social life and said relationships are much more important to her than anything holding me here in DFW. That being said, is it completly stupid to consider coming to Allegiant at some point? Assuming a long term/retire one day from, type career move. Obviously I would want to be based out of PIE or PGD to even make it worth considering. I know this is opinion based because you would have to know what is more important to us between QOL at work vs QOL where you live, but if anyone want to weigh in feel free.


There are lots of people who are at Allegiant as a career move. Being home every night with day trips is amazing for me, but it is not for everyone. If you are young, you are leaving a lot of money on the table by not going to a legacy. For me, the QOL at home is worth it.
