Update From Your Strategic Preparedness Committee

Allegiant Pilots,

As we head into another demanding holiday season, let’s pause to reflect on what we have carried on our shoulders. Through the turbulence of this industry, we—Allegiant pilots—have remained the steady hands keeping this airline in the air. Yet, despite our professionalism and dedication, we continue to work under a contract that fails to reflect our true value in today’s market.

We have now reached a turning point. Allegiant can no longer delay the inevitable. They are out of excuses, and time has run out. We gave this company every opportunity to do right by its pilots. Instead, management chose the path of RLA delay tactics, union-busting propaganda, and the same tired playbook designed to secure the cheapest labor possible. They underestimated us. They assumed we would cave. They were wrong.

The Vote of No Confidence results make one thing undeniable: Allegiant pilots no longer trust management or the board of directors. Despite our sacrifice and professionalism, they have failed us. Period. They have gambled with our careers, our families, and our future. Now is the time to demand accountability.

Management has suggested they want to “reset” this broken relationship. But let’s be clear—the root cause has never changed. The only path to repairing this relationship is delivering what this pilot group has earned and deserves: an industry-standard contract that reflects our worth in today’s market. Nothing less will suffice. Equally important, this management team must end its toxic behavior toward pilots, learn to show genuine respect, and treat us as the professionals we are.

We know our value. We have been more than patient. And now—our patience has run out. 

In the weeks ahead, our national campaign will accelerate, bringing our fight into the spotlight of our industry and the financial markets. The Strike Preparedness Committee will continue supporting our Negotiating Committee with one objective: to secure a contract by year’s end that honors the sacrifice and skill of every Allegiant pilot.

This is our contract. This is our career. This is our time.

Stay focused. Stay united. 
Ignore the noise. Trust the facts.

Together, we will win what we have long deserved.

 

In Unity,
