Wow. Straight from BG himself: Allegiant wanted to get a flow with Compass (to round out the TSH ULCC flow program since Gojet has Spirit and TSH has Frontier). And we almost had a flow to HAL as well. Maybe there was more truth to those rumors than I thought...

Anyone else get the vibe that we turned down Allegiant flow because they felt it was "beneath" us?

I talked to one of the chiefs recently he pretty much said that’s exactly why. Rather have no flow than a sketchy flow. For example if we made a deal with Frontier it might do more harm than good


Personally? I’d love allegiant. Day trips and six figure FO pay sure beats this place

Allegient doesn't have as big of a demand for pilots then most the other airlines right now. Their page on APC says 14 a month, and if there was a flow it would be much less than that so it would essentially be another recruiting tool rather than career progression for anyone. I agree that allegient isn't that bad of a gig anymore, but a flow there wouldn't be much use for most.

Just about to finish getting my 1,000 TPIC flying a PC-12. Think I’ll probably be able to bypass the regionals and go straight to a major. But while I wait for my call up I figure I’ll go to a regional for awhile. Problem is I don’t want to go to any regional that doesn’t have a flow. The market has been bullish for so long a major downturn could be right around the corner and I need to know I have that safetynet. Even if it’s just a flow like to sun country, allegiant or spirit. Oh guess I’ll just keep making 85k flying my Pilatus and get beemed up from here.
