Allegiant Air is adding two new routes from Arkansas to Florida in the coming months.
The Las Vegas-based airliner will be adding a route from Northwest Arkansas National Airport (XNA) to St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport and from XNA to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
The XNA to St. Pete-Clearwater route is set to begin on July 2, and one-way fares are expected to be as low as $38. The XNA to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood route is set to begin on Oct. 8 with one-way rates also beginning at $38.
“We’re hearing nothing but excitement from travelers looking forward to taking some long-overdue vacations,” Drew Wells, Allegiant senior vice president of revenue and planning, said in a statement. “We are excited to offer travelers even more convenient, nonstop routes to make those dreams of sunny places come true. Whether you’re looking to explore the desert southwest or take in the beaches of Florida, we’ve got your ride – free from the hassle of stops and layovers – at a price you can afford.”
Allegiant also offers seasonal direct flights from Bentonville to Destin/Fort Walton, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Nashville, Orlando, Sanford and Phoenix/Mesa from XNA.
Allegiant also added six new routes to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport, St. Pete Clearwater International Airport and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport in its new route announcement. The routes are from Provo Airport in Utah to Phoenix Sky Harbor and from Stockton Metropolitan Airport in California to Phoenix Sky Harbor; from Pittsburgh International Airport to Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport; and from Provo Airport to St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport.
