I could attend the Chicago one on the 2nd after a trip and just connect through ORD but I am not sure how that would look with me showing up in uniform over a suit.

ABE might become our new most junior base. I bet we have bottom CAs there with 2016-2017 hire dates. FOs will mostly be new hires.

I see mention of "churning" happening at many bases, what causes this and is it likely to continue through/after this new hiring wave?
I live in what is currently one of the 2-ship bases and would love to not have to move for my next job unless we just want to move (several other Allegiant bases are also appealing).

People who don’t have deep roots or are commuting anyway tend to base hop a lot here when they are on the bottom of the list. You can only be permanently displaced out of a base during a displacement bid. These only happen when the company is downsizing or eliminating a base or during a fleet transition. There are plenty of examples of displacement bids happening here, but in my opinion the company does a good job of reducing headcount in a base when needed by attrition as opposed to displacement.
