Just to add, per the earnings call the planned capacity growth for 2025 is 17% while pilot head count will remain about the same. The available seat miles will be added by a combination of increased utilization and parking 156-186 seat 319/320s for 190 seat max 8-200s. They are parking 12 buses this year while Boeing says they will deliver 12 but conservatively they will only expect 9. They did say they will take more if available and there is a chance for more than 12 but that seems unlikely. I think there will be some 2025 hiring depending on how much attrition we get above the 13 planned retirements. The deliveries for 2026 and beyond are mostly all for growth so that is when the training department should be maxed out with hiring outside of another black swan or economic lull, which even then there should still be some hiring since that was even the status quo during the lost decade.

 

Just received a CJO this week from Allegiant, I saw the earnings 1q earnings call is May 6th. Does anyone know how telling this will be? Will we will be able to guestimate if we are getting class dates this year?

 

Last word was late summer expect to be assigned the Boeing in FL.

 

CJOs are going out again? Any word on potential class dates?

 

Recent email from the company stated possible hiring late this year.

 

Heard someone in the company claim they need this contract done since they can’t get financing

 

Been hearing that rumor for the last 3 years. Safe to say I don’t listen to it anymore. Lol

 

that’s the oldest rumor in the book. Management is THRILLED this is taking so long. IBT asking to be released is just adding an additional 4-6 month delay.

then we’ll have elections and a new NC will be put in place. Basically, we probably wont have negotiations until after the summer. No deal in 2025.

Who thinks we get one in 2026??

 

Im a cadet so the CJO came from that. No class date though, just told to expect a later date.

 

but my brothers cousins sisters uncle told me
