You can do day trips even at the legacies, and it’s not just the senior people getting those trips. Being home every night is not unique to Allegiant any more. And another perk at the legacies? You can drop trips and work a skeleton schedule in order to spend more time at home or manage a side business. When was the last time you saw drops available at G4?

Or you can just keep living in denial…
I don’t know of any current legacy schedules that were 99% day trips like Allegiant. The old United shuttle schedules up and down the west coast or from ORD to NYC were only day trips, but currently I have not seen/heard of any that exist today.

If those still exist please elaborate because I would guess at least a few hundred pilots would be interested in how long it takes to get the qol of an Allegiant, but with legacy rates and bennies.
