Currently the most junior captain is a little less than 4 years on property. That time is increasing. I know it is has been said in here before but everything is incredibly base specific at Allegiant. The only way to upgrade anywhere close to that is to chase whatever new base opens. I am in a senior base and after 3 years I can’t even hold a line as an FO.

Yeah. Small bases with no control of your schedule, getting involuntarily tdy’d all month long away from your family, large bases with stagnation and no upgrade in the near future. Pay is descent but other than the fact that you’re home every night there’s no reason to come here unless it’s to pad your resume. If you’re senior life is great. Junior isn’t as rosy.

For a few yes. Sometimes ppl will volunteer if you’re lucky. But if you’re the bottom at a small base and they tdy you’re stuck. Never happened to me thankfully but I feel for the ones it happens to. So may not be a huge company wide issue but an issue for some.
