Allegiant Air

[Janet89]

RATS! I shouldn't have looked, but their rates have dropped for our July trip. Too bad I was a chicken and booked last month! :mad: Oh Well . . . . We still got a decent deal, but I like to save $$. Just venting. :)

Hello, I don't mean to be nosy nate but, are you flying into Orlando International (MCO) or Orlando Sanford International (SFB)? Allegiant doesn't show service for (MCO). I have read many posts of people that got a big surprise when they landed only to find that they were at Sanford (SFB) and where not at the airport served by Magical Express (MCO). Apparently the ground transportation from (SFB) to WDW is more expensive than (MCO). Just wanted to ask ahead of time. I'm sure you where quite aware of all your travel plans and my question is not necessary. Hope you have a magical vacation.

Allegiant was so cheap we could have covered a limo easily, but they were only flying 2 days last week. And they were non-stop.:(

Why do I fly Allegiant to Sanford rather than another airline to MCO?


Fares are CHEAP
They offer the only non-stop from my location
I can get a limo from Sanford and still save a significant amount over the lowest price from my city to MCO


From my vantage point, there's only one choice for me to make.

Probably less hassle at Sanford too. Going home we got on the wrong shuttle after finally getting through security because it wasn't marked and almost missed our plane. We didn't know the airline had moved our flight up 1:10! Had to wait 3 hours for our second plane when that flight was only 1 hour!!

1) We like Allegiant, and have flown them several times.
2) They are a very smart low-cost airline.
. . . they fly a limited schedule from any airport
. . . sometimes they fly only 2-days a week from an airport
. . . if capacity goes down, they stop flying that airport
. . . they are cheap, but there are several extra charges
. . . they have *usually* pleasant air crews
. . . they fly point-to-point direct flights, so no airport connections
