Communication Committee Update – August 14, 2025

Fellow Pilots, As management flies around in fancy private jets to do “base visits”, while reminding you that they can’t afford a fair contract, we have a different message. Allegiant’s current management team has failed. Our pilots have lost all confidence in this management group to lead this airline and it’s time to take action. In recent […]

UNITY Podcast – Episode 2

Dear Local 2118 Members, I recently had the privilege of sitting down for my second podcast with our Negotiating Committee. Over the course of the discussion, I asked many of the questions that have been circulating among our pilot group — gathered from the chat boards, conversations, and direct polling.

SPC Update: Allegiant Pilot Strike Handbook

Fellow Pilots, Today, we are sharing the Allegiant Pilot Strike Handbook—a critical tool in preparing for what we hope never comes, but must always be ready for: a strike. We know how frustrating this process has been. Four years post-amendable, while inflation surges and the company takes massive, self-induced financial hits, management continues to exploit […]
