Maybe Allegiant gives that option in the future to new hires?
That's unlikely but possible. They are running it the same as the big 3 and other majors with more than 1 fleet type. However, for the time being they are waiving any equip locks for those awarded bus that want 737. Some have even gotten the award off the airbus while still in indoc. Also, the equip lock is not a seat lock, meaning if you're awarded 737 FO you can bid airbus CA right away. The December bid had someone only on property for 3 months awarded airbus captain (sept 2023 hire).
