Hahahaha...surely you jest.

 

Hello to all Allegiant pilots, couple questions.. How long takes to hold FLL base with Airbus ?...and for how long you hold both base/ac. I would like to hold FLL with Bus

My qualifications are

6290TT
2800 in Airbus (current flying for Avianca)
250 PIC
Thanks in advance

kind regards

 

i've never hated working for g4 more than now. every month a new low.

 

It all depends on the class and your age. If it's offered and you are close to 40 you will have no problem. I haven't looked to see how senior it is overall but it has gone all over the board in new hire classes.

 

FLL is an all Airbus base. It's anyone's guess how long it will take to hold FLL, although FLL has been pretty junior recently (most jr FO was hired 8/24/2015, 3 classes ago). As to whether you can hold Airbus in class, it will depend on your age and the class breakdown. The older/more senior in class you are you should be able to hold Airbus without too much problem. If you are young, you may not be able to hold Airbus. Although there is a disclaimer: the class right after 8/24/2015 had all 80 slots and NO Airbus slots. That is always a possibility and a risk you will have to take if you decide to come here. If you get the 80 there will be a 2 year equipment lock, so with FLL an all Airbus fleet it will be more than 2 years before you hold it.

With your times, if you apply today you will be contacted within a week for a phone interview. Good luck, what ever you decide.

 

Thank you fishforum I got it!
Regards

 

Yes I'm 41 yrs old... And I recieved the invitation for the phone interview, they are calling to my cell phone, but I'm currently base in Quito-Ecuador South America, do you have any idea how I can reach them. I've already sent an e-mail to Jessica Salas saying that, hope they get my e-mail.

Thank you flyingdutchman1

Hi, anyone know how soon AVL may go airbus? Second question is, for a new hire with low seniority, what would the pros cons be of choosing AVL vs PIE or SAN (assuming MD80. The base sizes are very different and im guessing the larger bases would be a better bet from a scheduling/seniority standpoint. I also assume PIE and SAN flying/scheduling are fairly similar? Also at what point in training are the 'available' bases/eqpt given to the new hires to consider? Does the 'award' come whenever the regular quarterly bid comes out, and when are those? Thanks in advance, Fred

 

Presumably you mean Sanford FL = SFB?
SAN = San Diego, CA.
Not that a SAN base wouldn't make quite a few folks happy......

 

yes Charlie, you are correct I meant SFB! oops...
