So, are these 757s an addition to our fleet and new flying, or are we turning into a leasing company?


Six 757s Financed

ALLEGIANT TRAVEL COMPANY FINANCES SIX 757 AIRCRAFT

LAS VEGAS. May 30, 2014 -Allegiant Travel Company (NASDAQ: ALGT) today announced that it has borrowed $40.0 million under a loan agreement with CIT secured by six 757 aircraft and twelve RB211 engines.

The term of the loan is 48 months and the proceeds are to be used for general corporate purposes.

"We are very pleased to be able to access the market at competitive rates," said Andrew C. Levy, Allegiant Travel Company President and Chief Operating Officer. "We continue to demonstrate that there is strong financing demand for used aircraft which is the life blood of our company. This transaction is also evidence of our commitment to the 757 and the positive contributions that it is making to the Allegiant fleet."

If anything i thought you were going to let the 757 rot??

I think they are refinancing the current fleet of 757's, which were for sale, the last I knew.

This is correct. We owned the 6 outright and are just taking a loan out on them at a low rate so we can have cash to acquire more Airbus ( or whatever else) if we can find a deal. It's a 4 year term on the loan so unless they pay it back early, we'll be keeping the 757's a awhile longer.

Does anyone know if calls for interviews have stated again? Or are the simulator issues holding them back from putting more people in the pipeline?

Can someone post or PM me some examples of what a jr and sr line schedule looks like for a pilot based in say, PIE and FLL? I'd really appreciate it!

Feel free to PM me and remove any identify info on it, I understand. I'll keep it to myself. Thanks!

That can't be serious, right?

But you're home every night though right?

That schedule seems about right. Single days off is the new norm here.
