No hiring for over a year and no growth. I wish someone in Vegas would pull their head out of their arse and attempt to compete.
David Neeleman’s new airline Moxy will be hiring in the next 12 months. Allegiant’s previous VP of Route Planning already jumped ship to Moxy. There will be other options if you are looking for growth...

Doubt they are hiring in 12 months. Pretty sure they aren't expected to fly until late 2020 or 2021 when they start receiving the A220s. Plus, they don't have a certificate yet. Kind of need that to fly. If someone wants to jump in 12 months for a lateral move, they should be looking at Frontier or Spirit.

Stick with what you know. Go back to the Delta forums and sell the CSeries/ "Airbus" 220. Pilots don't make these decisions anyway.

Will likely be a lot of TDY's this summer from the other bases... Between MYR/SAV/VPS and possibly GRR (I'd imagine there might be some upgrades and unfilled FO spots in GRR)... There are not nearly enough VBD crews to cover all this flying.

So much for the rumor VBD is going away. I was surprised at the number of TDYs for March that came out yesterday afternoon. If they are smart they will add more VBD slots in the bid next month. But stepping over dollars to pick up dimes is the allegiant way so we can probably expect a lot of TDY this summer. That will do wonders for morale too. This summer is going to be a $*** show.

Although flex is key for Allegiant, looking to eventually get to a FL base.... VPS. Possible or probable? Fly safe - and thanks ahead time.

It’s really impossible to tell, because we haven’t hired in over a year now. However, in the last two classes hired, most of our bases are represented with the exception of IWA, PIE PIT, BLI, and CVG. VPS is still junior now because it is still new and the winter flying is not that great. PGD will also continue to go junior. Getting to one of the Florida bases shouldn’t be a problem.

Thanks much. Work/life? Can you share any goods or uglies? Appreciate your thoughts. Also, share your gut feel on the pilot group climate with company? Folks happy....not?
