I'd rather slam my private region in a car door than work for Allegiant. True story.

Allegiant from what I hear is not commutable, and a huge risk to take being that you may end up anywhere. If you own a house and have a family, good luck! Do they even offer schedules with consecutive days off that aren't TDY?

You know Aleegiant is bad when some Mesa stooge is bagging on it.

From what I hear, it is bad news there and it won't take long for that new car smell to wear off.
Alright, let's get some real info and facts, what is "from what you hear it is bad news there" could you explain and list it out?

Which is rather funny, since you can spell the word "genital" using the letters from Allegiant.

I'd be a little careful about getting too cocky. Bryan Bedford is still the Chairman and CEO of that place and that contract has a lot of company-favorable caveats that have yet to be exploited.

For example, ask any reserve FA about how the phrase "all things being equal" is being used to negate what they thought were gains in their reserve language.

This right here!! ^^^ Look at any of the numerous threads to see what Republic has done over the years. Guy I talked to quit after the "kids spend your money wisely" memo from BB. Dude in his million dollar mansion telling his pilots to maybe not upsize their value meal so they will have more money in the future.

I don't know what will happen with your new contract. But I am guessing that a management company that took 8 years to get a new contract and blames everything on the 1500 rule, already has figured out how they will exploit the new loopholes and wrote them in there for a reason. No skin in the game, but if it was me I wouldn't expect BB to change the way he has been for all these years and all of a sudden treat you guys with respect. Time will tell.
