But to flow is 5 year minimum. What are your thoughts on me accepting the CJO instead of waiting long for the flow? With a new contract due and A320 time early in my career, is it a bad gig? Also can someone give an insight on a realistic FO salary. Cheers!
The only issue I can think of is that if mainline is your goal 121 PIC will help you and you won't get that at allegiant. However if you're at an AA regional and your goal is AA (or same with Delta) you may be better to leave since they are slowing hiring from their regionals. First year pay at G4 you will probably make about 60K second year about 100K in a junior base. As for whether it's a "good gig" search this forum.
