Allegiant Air is adding more options for spring breakers in places like Arizona and Florida.
On Tuesday, Allegiant announced nine new routes from its bases across the US. The new service will start with fares starting at $39 one-way. As the Las Vegas-based carrier prepares for a busy spring season, the boom in domestic travel continues into the new year despite the threat of the COVID-19 Omicron variant.
Drew Wells, Allegiant's senior vice president of revenue and planning, said that the routes would connect to premier destinations in Arizona and Florida in time for Spring break. Whether travelers are looking to explore the desert southwest or take in the beaches of Florida, we've got the flights for them at a price they can afford.
Allegiant has a new route going to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, which will allow it to reach three destinations out of the busy capital. The airline has a strong network out of the smaller airport in the city, Phoenix-Mesa.
The expansion will increase traffic in the area, which has seen an increase in passengers in the last two years. Allegiant has become the airport's biggest operator and brought in hundreds of thousands of passengers. In October alone, the airport saw over two hundred thousand passengers, which is 148% more than the previous two months.
In the first 10 months of this year, nearly 2.5 million travelers passed through the airport, making it the busiest year to date. The previous record was 2.01 million passengers in 1990.
Allegiant's route announcement is targeting leisure destinations across the US, but it hopes to expand beyond that with a new venture with Mexico-based Viva Aerobus. The pair applied to the Department of Transportation to create a fully-integrated Commercial Alliance Agreement. Passengers in both countries would have more options with the partnership.
