Tend to agree, allegiant doesn't bring anything to the table that they don't already have other than maybe slots and gates at Willy.

Lot easier to just pull their own planes out of the desert and have their own guys fly them (the guys they're paying to sit home right now).

The only appeal G4 might have had to the bigs would have been experienced bus srivers... in an alternate reality where there was still a shortage of competent, experienced 121 pilots.
