Care Bear is just sour grapes that he left allegiant to go to the bottom of your list and now faces furlough, where if he stayed here he'd be in good shape, even with a furlough.

I wonder what is going on at Frontier, Sun Country, Jet Blue, Allegiant, etc (in regards to possible furloughs)
good luck guys
Allegiant has said several times now they they aren't planning to furlough, unless the second wave results in more lockdowns, but that probably holds true for everyone. If there are more lockdowns there will be some airline liquidations.

If we have a greater exposure to that market than other LCCs/ULCCs, we will need to downsize more.
Allegiant has zero international flights. The closest we get to international is foreign nationals driving across the border to catch our flights in places like Bellingham WA, Grand Forks ND, Ogdensburg NY, Niagra Falls, El Paso, and McAllen TX. All of that has completely dried up, but was probably only 10% or less of our total operation.
