Not sure if this has already been discussed - I just saw this interesting post on another forum.
Is this a typical typo/HR mistake on their part or a hint about their fleet intentions? Are there enough older A320/319s parked to get them on the cheap nowadays? Certainly the MD83 performance is not stellar - so, the A320 could probably fit the bill on most routes and most runway lengths currently used by the MD83. Anyone at Allegiant heard any internal chatter to confirm this?
With oil prices fluctuating, is now the time to start to re-fleet Allegiant? Obviously the MD80s are complete gas and maintenance hogs.... If they are publishing this job opening now, you can bet they are (or already have been) negotiating something - right?
