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 every tool under the Railway Labor Act to stall negotiations. This is not incompetence—it is strategy. They aim to exhaust you, divide us, and pressure you into accepting less than you deserve.
But it’s not working.
You have shown up—day in and day out—flying safely and professionally, despite being the lowest paid pilots in the industry. You have worn your Teamsters lanyards, badge backers, and “Ready to Strike” bag tags with pride. By doing this, you show us we are brothers and sisters in this fight together without ever saying a word. You haven’t bought into the false promises or the divisive tactics. You’ve stood together. That unity is our greatest weapon.
Make no mistake: a credible strike threat is the only thing that moves negotiations forward. And credibility requires preparation and unity. The handbook, along with the previously released Families and Finances document, contains everything you need to be ready—both personally and professionally. Review it carefully. Know it. Keep it close.
The SPC’s job is to ensure we are ready if management pushes us to the brink. To be clear, we don’t want to strike—but if we must, we will be ready.
Your SPC team includes over 120 volunteers from every base in the system. Most of you have been assigned a Primary and Alternate SPC Rep from your base—your local point of contact for all strike-related questions. If you have not heard from them yet, you will soon.
Call for help
Candidly, LAS and IWA remain understaffed and pilots in those bases are not assigned Reps as of yet. If we absolutely must, we will assign your Reps from bases where we have extra volunteers. That’s our least preferred option. We need you. We believe your SPC rep should be someone you know and trust—not a stranger from across the country. If you’re willing to stand up and help lead your base through this critical phase, email us at spc@apa2118.org.
Do not wither and fear the fight. Together, we will not be broken. Together, we will win. Stand with us.
