Well, can't debate now, I'm really busy baking a cake for the allegiant 2014 bestest cake bake off contest. Thinking about adding one egg to my special recipe this year, not sure about the risk though, there is so much on the line.

 

This could be entertaining.....

Allegiant and Alpine Labs Announce Premiere of THE GAME PLANE First Ever In-Flight Game Show - MarketWatch

 

Yeah, fun stuff. The pilots wear clown costumes during those trips and during cruise flight, one pilot comes out for awhile to hand out party supplies and goof around. Its a gas! This is just what we needed.

 

If you don't have DVR it might be tough to watch since it's debuting on that "prime" 2am Sunday morning slot, right after Cheaters.

 

I didn't need another reason to be embarrassed that I work here.

 

By the way, excellent letter from our IBT reps today. Thanks for all you do.

 

To all those thinking about coming to Allegiant but wondering if all these posts are exaggerations, let me assure you they are not. I am a senior Captain who would be top 5 in any base (except LAS where all the old farts are) on any aircraft. I am number 2 in my current base and couldn't get a Wednesday off in August although 2 pilots below me did. PBS my butt! I can't PTO a dang thing, have at least 4 reserve days built into my schedule every month, haven't had more then 4 days off in a row in months and my pay check has been wrong 6 times since Merlot came into play. Oh and the "Game Plane", what a joke. I had these guys on one of my flights and it happened to be turbulent a good portion of the flight. I got numerous complaints from the film crew and the company because the seat belt sign was not turned off. Really? Communication is a joke, Captains have zero authority until they want to hang you for something and FOs are a legality not an asset. Oh and I make less then a jetBlue 190 Captain with half my seniority. But on the bright side, the cockpits are so dirty you can plant crops on the floor so I'm thinking about growing some marijuana plants to fund my retirement. I'm done holding out hope. Look for me at the job fair next month. I'll be the one pulling people out of the Allegiant line!!!

 

Wow, the online voices seem to be increasing. Some yahoo on here insinuated it was only one or three Debbie Downers, that probably didn’t even work here. And that every one of his so-called buddies loves it here.

 

Maybe everyone should keep the seatbelt sign on when they're onboard...because ATC said there's some 'light chop' up ahead...

 

Allegiant must be getting ready for a big training push. Their booking all of the MD-80 sim time at Pan Am in Miami and Las Vegas.
