WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. Feb. 19, 2016 — Allegiant (NASDAQ: ALGT) today launches nonstop seasonal flights to West Palm Beach, Florida from Pittsburgh. The company, known for its exceptional travel deals, is offering one-way fares to West Palm Beach as low as $57.*
"Allegiant's launch of these new flights between Pittsburgh and Palm Beach is very exciting for both communities,"said Jude Bricker, Allegiant chief operating officer. "We look forward to bringing more visitors to the Palm Beaches and the subsequent economic growth it will bring to the area."
The new seasonal flights will operate twice weekly and expand on the service Allegiant currently operates to Palm Beach International Airport (PBI). The service will run from Feb. 19, 2016 through May 16, 2016. The new flights will bring more than 4,000 additional visitors each year to the Palm Beach area and generate an estimated $3.6 million in total visitor spending annually.

"Allegiant's new route is exciting news for the airport, community and economy of Palm Beach County,"said Bruce Pelly, director of airports for Palm Beach County. "Partnering with Allegiant for their first nonstop service from Pittsburgh to Palm Beach is a great benefit to our travelers and provides more options when making travel plans to and from PBI."
"We are pleased that Allegiant continues to increase service at PBI, expanding the reach for travelers to the Palm Beaches and for our residents to have more options when flying out of PBI,"said Glenn Jergensen, Palm Beach County Tourist Development Council executive director. "The Pittsburgh market is a welcomed addition for those south bound travelers looking to escape the winter's fury to discover the Palm Beaches, the best way to experience Florida."
Allegiant's innovative business model has allowed it to grow from one plane and one route to offering access to low-cost flights in over 100 cities nationwide, more than any other domestic low-cost carrier.
