Lol. At allegiant we aren't negotiating and won't be for many years. And people who travel from Florida to Arizona to pick up a 200% 4 leg day trip are definitely hoes.

Out of base is the key there. With a bunch of small bases you lose all flexibility in base. ACY is small and there is very little to swap with usually. Every time we open a new base we dilute the existing bases and lower flexibility as well as slow seniority movement in base. A handful of big bases throughout the country is best. A bunch of mini bases is terrible.

Oh I see, so they decided to open an entire base because another base would be slightly inconvenienced for less than 12 months.............
Okie dokie bud, I guess nothing to do with the 30+ departures out of MCO and the 60+ rooms we pay for there every night. Yeah.... Thought so. |

Google Ad hominem. Point is... Some of us have seen this game played out before.. Some “phuckry” is afoot. Trust me. |

No, actually we post swap and trade trips constantly here. Even in the tiny bases. It's actually pretty easy to swap day trips and get a day off or am/pm if something comes up.

Your relative position will stagnate, and your flexibility, if all the new hires were to go BWI in an A220.
At NK and WN upgrade is at 55%, except for a few holdouts. At all the legacy carriers there is 20 long haul FOs, and now 2 year captains, as long as you don't mind sitting reserve in EWR+JFK+LGA. I think having more types and more bases gives people more options. |
