Allegiant offers new nonstop service to Spokane

SPOKANE — Allegiant on Tuesday announced two new nonstop routes to Spokane International Airport from Las Vegas and Orange County, Calif.

The new routes will operate twice weekly.

“We are excited to welcome Allegiant back to the Spokane/Coeur d'Alene market with new nonstop service to Orange County/John Wayne Airport and additional nonstop service to Las Vegas/McCarran Airport,” said Ezra Eckhardt, chairman of the Spokane Airport Board.

He said Orange County is an important gateway to the Los Angeles Basin, which remains the region’s largest travel market.

"We are currently experiencing a shift to more leisure travel and more demand to leisure destinations which are best served by nonstop flights," Eckhardt said.

He said the board is also pleased with Allegiant’s service to Las Vegas as it has climbed into their second-largest top market destination.

"As an ultra-low cost carrier, Allegiant provides real value to our travelers and we expect the market to respond well to the service," Eckhardt said.

To celebrate, the company is offering one-way fares on the new route as low as $49.
