Training Details
 
Hey guys, congratulations to all starting training soon. It has been a wild year.

can anyone share some light on what training might look like? Length, logistics, etc...

thank you!

Training is pretty leisurely. Few weeks of ground.. two weeks or so of SITs (non-motion cockpit trainer), Oral, then ~7 SIMs. PC, then EET/LOFT/IOE. Anything could be in Orlando or Vegas.

I am wondering once people are in class are they going to do seniority based on SS or based on how long they have been in the pool? 🤔 might be a dumb questions

The CBA does not address seniority within a pool. It is senior based on last 4 of SS number within a class.

Class seniority is based on last 4 of Social, lowest is most senior.

Does Allegiant fly your significant other out to Vegas for a meet and greet like some of the other majors? Just curious

Allegiant doesn’t even fly you out to Vegas.

Yes, they will, but only on Allegiant.

What are these meet and greets you speak of? If you're referring to a wing ceremony like United, or a reception at the museum, like Delta, no. There is no such thing.

You'll get your wings after you pass your type oral. Or after systems. Or maybe after your type ride. Or you'll be trying to chase them down on your way to IOE. Nothing special happens here. It's part of the attraction. This is a go to work, do your job properly, go home, collect your check kind of place. Don't come here expecting any kind of white glove treatment, because you'll be very disappointed. This isn't a legacy airline, it's an Ultra Low Cost Carrier where people at HQ fret over the cost of mailing things via USPS.

No, they don't fly your spouse out. Travel benefits start after 30 days. (60 days for ZED). I guess they can non rev out to you after that if you need a conjugal visit in training.

6 months for zed.

and there is a wings ceremony (at least there was shortly before covid) but it was laughable 😵‍💫. Would not advise you fly your spouse out.
