| Old Skool | Here are some photos from the Allegiant tour, I will post a link later on with the rest of the photos. Kudos to the Allegiant staff for rolling out the red carpet for us, Captain Brian Peters (Senior Captain, Check Airman, & member of the hiring committee) & Brian (Station Manager) spoke about Allegiant & their business plan, hiring mins, took us on a walk-around, and gave everybody a chance to visit the cockpit.... Captain Steve Ostrander, Kym, & Captain Wayne Grady were people helping out behind the scenes.... About Allegiant: Allegiant Airlines operates an all MD80 fleet of aircraft comprised of the MD83 & MD87. Allegiant operates into secondary airports to keep cost down and operates flights based on the need. Allegiant may operate to a particular airport twice a week. Allegiant Airlines focus is on leisure travel, the company emphasizes low-fares, nonstop flights, vacation packages and leisure traffic to Las Vegas, & Orlando Florida. Through research Allegiant found out that people do not normally travel on a Tuesday, so, that is a day that Allegiant grounds a majority of their fleet & gives the mechanics a chance to catch up on write-ups....

| Senior Member | I thought maybe I saw all you guys out my window when we pulled out of the gate about 8:30ish, we were right next to Allegiant. I tried to wave, honk the horn, signal morse code with my window shade but no luck. Hope everyone had fun.
