Questions: with Allegiant, how many days per week are you "typically" flying considering no layovers? Are they typically 2 or 4 sectors per day if you fly out of Florida (PIE, SFB or FLL)? Lastly, if you live in Florida, what percentage of your trips are non-scheduled trips?

Have a look at this

Wow, I hadn't realized how low your guys pay was till I just clicked on that sight. Guys, even with your new proposed rates at my seniority. 5yr VX I'm almost $40k up and I thought I was severely underpaid. Your management has a long way to go before they get to pay levels you deserve.

Best of luck going fwd.

Pretty much every recent Airbus Captain upgrade involved a move.
Quick upgrade and "home every night" don't necessarily go together.

The calculator on band 3 says at the same credit I would only make $104k with alligiant.

I know its not exact science. but that's a pretty big margin.
