I went to a fear of flying resource (Captn. Tom Bunn) with SOAR and asked for advice. His words were "I would not fly on Allegiant, nor allow my children to fly on them". Obviously this has made my fear even worse.
Captn. Tom claims to have email records of shoddy maintenance work sent to him from a former Allegiant pilot who he claims was fired for refusing to fly an "unsafe" plane.
So, before I put my life, and the life of my new bride on the line, does anyone have any tips for me? Especially any Allegiant pilots out there?
In the back of my mind I'm wondering if what he said is true?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
Best regards,
Jack
To be honest, you should spend a lot less time worrying about your flight and a lot more time planning what your gonna do in FLL....its a great town to party in!!!
Enjoy your flight and RELAX!!!! Thousands of people fly everyday, and the good folks up in the front are some of the best, well trained pilots in the world.
