No, no answer is lost wages and insurance for every pilot. You're "ASK" is unreasonable, you want to fly 2 days a month and pocket $500k a year to sit on your boat in a minibase. The term industry standard is thrown around like you are owed something. If you want industry standard go to a real airline and not one that hires failed CFIs and non-citizens because it can't hire a qualified pilot. ULLCs are not MAINLINE! Your true peers are Spirit Frontier Avelo and Breeze. PBS or CBI doesn't much matter, the company will adjust scheduling and staffing around their ever so precious 'peak days' so it makes a profit. Overnights or not.
Now, the 2nd part of your post I agree with and would defend as mostly accurate.
an Airbus is an Airbus and a 737 is a 737… you wanna sell cheaper tickets you still gotta pay your labor. Talk about reasonable! nobody is asking to make 500k and work 2 days a month. The reason they hired CFIs and non citizens is because the pay and CBA are so ****ty at allegiant those are the only people who would consider coming here…
