Allegiant Air, anyone?

Anyone ever fly Allegiant Air? I'd be interested in hearing your reports.

I used to fly them often when they had an LGB hub. They were the best from LA county to LAS. The owner as I recall was a wealthy Mormon so their other hub was SLC. But he could never get them some sort of FAA cert to be in the reservation systems so he gave up. Then one of his board members bought the airline and they pulled out of LGB. That's the last I heard of them.

It was good while it lasted.

I flew them once. They're not bad, not great. A good airline.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll most likely be flying them to Vegas from COS. They still are not in the main reservations systems (at least not on Orbitz), but they are worth knowing about, as they are dirt cheap at $100 less than the otherwise lowest fare.

Apparently, no FF miles or partnerships.

Their cocktail napkins say "Exciting destinations! Fresno! Las Vegas!"
