Catastrophic engine failure at 33,000'?

Um, regardless of Allegiant's problems, one should ALWAYS expect something to go wrong on takeoff. The worst thing that could happen IMO is falling into a routine where you expect everything to work correctly during takeoff.

I guarantee that no Allegiant pilot will ever takeoff with the mindset that things will work properly.

Can one expect 5-6 days off in a row during a monthly schedule at allegiant ? I have a family situation that will need this time off to visit an elderly family member. I like day trips , etc. but if you constantly work 5 days a week for 4 weeks , that would be tough.
