Email from Steve Harfst:
"First, Allegiant is committed to continuing to bargain in good faith with our pilots and their union representatives......With work still to be done, we are disappointed that rather than spending time and effort on proposals and discussion, the IBT has instead chosen to attack the company instead of the issues."

I don't think he sent that email himself. He was touring the gates at SFB when the email was sent. I talked to him for a bit, he doesn't seem to have that NWA arrogance that the B&B show has.

Allegiant Air pilots picket for better pay, benefits
Clearwater, Florida -- Allegiant Air pilots are protesting two years of fruitless negotiations with their airline.
The pilots picketed at St. Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport on Tuesday, saying they want better pay and benefits. They are upset talks with Allegiant have not progressed more over the past two years.
"Our pilots' message is simple," says Dan Wells, President of Teamsters Local 1224. "We need to bring attention to our plight in flight against Allegiant Air management. We seek a contract that will secure the success of our company Allegiant, and our pilots. We seek average wages and job protections that are standard in the airline industry."
As the picketing continues, there is talk of the pilots going on strike, possibly by Friday.

so is this going to lead to allegiant hiring pilots with less than 3 thousand hours or lead to them folding up? serious question. and i know nobody has a crystal ball but allegiant is a major airline not a regional i think that plays a factor into management wanting to work with the pilots and keep going or do they want to liquidate and walk away?

Did those companies have a $150 share price and 700 mil in the bank at the time they were liquidated? I highly doubt that will happen in this case unless there's some Enron-style cooking the books going on.
As for the questions about the new COO, prior to the above he was a career Navy F14 pilot IIRC.

And on top of it all we are being turned down by dickmaster's with sub-3000 hours.
The union should be allowed to mass-blast "allegiant all" to even the propaganda playing field a little.
