Overview of Allegiant Air
One of the most competitive low-cost carriers on the market, Allegiant Air flies to a number of under-serviced cities around the United States, such as Anchorage, Minot, Elmira and Sarasota. The airline reaches 122 destinations across the United States, with some services such as Hagerstown and Charleston only operating on a seasonal basis.
While the airline only offers commercial flights within the United States, it is possible to fly to more than 10 airports close to the Canadian border. Budget-friendly international travel is popular with customers who use Allegiant Air to reach domestic destinations, such as Rochester and Bellingham, before driving north.
There is only the option of traveling in Economy Class, meaning all customers have equal benefits. Seats at the front of the planes come with additional legroom. There are no reclining seats on their fleet, thus you can be assured the person in front of you won’t disturb your trip.
The largest hub for the airline is at McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas, with at least 18 more around the United States. The majority of these hubs are located on the West Coast or in Florida. The airline was originally known as WestJet Express and has hubs in Los Angeles, Oakland and Bellingham.
Allegiant Air has had a long relationship with Airbus dating back to 2013. The twin-jet A320 family of airliners are their preferred fleet, with more than 90 individual planes in service. Ideal for short to medium distance flights, the aircraft can carry between 156 and 186 passengers. A distinctive orange sun is emblazoned on the tail of the entire fleet.
