Allegiant Airlines is launching new flights to Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport along with new routes to Florida.
Introductory fares range between $39 and $59.
The Las Vegas -based Allegiant announced Tuesday it was launching new flights between Phoenix and Knoxville, Tennessee and Toledo Ohio.
Allegiant’s business model focuses on flights from smaller and mid-sized markets to warm weather areas such as Florida, Arizona and Las Vegas.
Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport is in the East Valley and has seen real estate development and growth since its transformation into an airport from a former U.S. Air Force base.
Allegiant is also starting new flights to Florida and other destinations.
Those include:
• St. Petersburg/Clearwater and Clarksburg, West Virginia;
• Appleton, Wisconsin and Fort Lauderdale and Sarasota, Florida, and Denver.
• Flint, Michigan and Jacksonville and Boston
“These routes will connect our customers to premier destinations in Arizona and Florida just in time for Spring break,” said Drew Wells, Allegiant’s senior vice president of revenue and planning. “Whether travelers are looking to explore the desert southwest or take in the beaches of Florida, we’ve got the flights for them – free from the hassle of stops and layovers – at a price they can afford.”
