Allegiant pay is really crappy, and I make at Mesa ($140k/year as line holding FO) way more than I'll ever make at allegiant FO. Granted I do pickup open time, but still... So? Do legacies hire from allegiant as much as they do Spirit?
Are new hires being out in 737 now? (do they even operate that now)
Is there a lot of open time to pickup?
Is there a lot of 4 day trips or are all majority day trips?
Junior bases?
If you want to go to a legacy stay at Mesa and update apps. You could delay any advancement to a legacy if you have any hiccup in training or run-in with the disciplinary thing at Allegiant. Probably better to spend time going to meet-ups. 737 are not flying yet and will probably be next year in Florida, barring any more delays in cert and or Boeing delivery schedules.
