Allegiant advice

[tico]

First of all, what makes you think Allegiant isn't a career airline? Secondly, what magic 8-ball do you have that says today's new hires will be in the right seat for 3 or more years?

Different strokes for different folks, but don't talk out of your ass just to hear yourself talk...

C'mon chper,
The guy is on the verge of getting a position that will pay him well and add to his resume.....Ask the jblu co-pilots who were promised A-320 upgrades in a year how that has worked for them and when you move on to bigger and better things, I am going to dig out this post and PM it to you....It is not fair to tell anyone that year 2 or 3 co-pilot pay does not matter because they will upgrade before then......

I'm not saying for a second that he should pass up on the upgrade...

While no one knows what the future hold, I am fairly certain that anyone hired at Allegiant today will have the opportunity to be in the left seat in 18 months or so. The only 2 or 3 year FOs here will be here by choice or by failing upgrade.

Will we still be here in 5 years?? Hell if I know... but I think we have a pretty good shot. See what our stock has been doing?

Yes.
Let's say for example you live in LA and started your week off by airlining out of LAX. At the end of a day (any day of that week), you end up at John Wayne airport. Well its cheaper to get you a room at the Hilton right there then it would be to pay for your cab (both ways) or rent you a car etc...

You should apply there then, and not Allegiant.

No ya' see I like Allegiant and I can't wait until I have the mins to apply. I am going to go get my ATP when I hit 2900 Hrs. and I am going to apply at 3000. If Allegiant hires me I plan to move to my first domicle because I want to be home more than I am as a commuter. I will never be a commuter again because it is a huge strain on QOL. I spend all of my time at home catching up. Now don't get me wrong. I intend to apply to Net Jets too and being fortunate enough to get hired by even one of those places I would be estatic. If given the opportunity to choose; I will choose Allegiant.

That's one of the benefits of being a corporate/fractional pilot. You won't see that at any airline.

That really doesn't relate to the original question. Nice twist on the topic though.
