The new service will begin next spring with fares starting at $39 one-way. The move comes as the Las Vegas-based carrier prepares for a busy spring season, particularly as the boom in domestic travel continues into the new year despite the looming threat of the COVID-19 Omicron variant.</p><p>"These routes will connect our customers to premier destinations in Arizona and Florida just in time for Spring break," Allegiant's senior vice president of revenue and planning, Drew Wells, said. "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." </p><p>While Allegiant has historically focused on secondary airports in major cities, one of its new routes is heading to <keyword id="12189511" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="phoenix" source="Orion">Phoenix</keyword> Sky Harbor International Airport, expanding its presence to three destinations out of the busy capital. Currently, the airline has a robust network out of the city's smaller airport, Phoenix-Mesa, offering dozens of route options.</p><p>The expansion will also increase traffic in Sarasota, Florida, which has seen a major uptick in passengers compared to 2019 and 2020. Allegiant has been a significant player in the airport's boom, becoming the airport's biggest operator and bringing in hundreds of thousands of passengers. In October alone, the airport saw 275,329 passengers, which is 72% and 148% more than October 2019 and 2020, respectively, <a href="https://srq-airport.com/sites/default/files/Monthly%20Activity%20Report%2010-2021.pdf">according to airport data</a>. </p><p>Airport statistics also revealed 2021 has also been Sarasota's busiest year to date with nearly 2.5 million travelers passing through the airport from January to October. Its previous record stood at 2.01 million passengers in 1990, according to the <a href="https://www.heraldtribune.com/story/business/travel/2021/11/17/sarasota-bradenton-international-airport-reports-strong-traffic-growth-october/8650783002/">Herald-Tribune.</a></p><p>Allegiant's route announcement is targeting leisure destinations across the US, but it hopes to expand beyond that with <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/allegiant-air-and-viva-aerobus-codeshare-between-mexico-and-us-2021-12">a new venture with Mexico-based Viva Aerobus</a> in early 2023.

Currently, there are 14 active antitrust alliances <a href="https://www.transportation.gov/office-policy/aviation-policy/dot-aviation-anti-trust-immunity-cases">approved by the DOT</a>, like United Airlines and Germany-based Lufthansa; Delta and UK-based Virgin Atlantic; and American and Australia-based Qantas.</p><p>Joining as a team, the duo will be able to coordinate their airline operations, including their data systems, loyalty programs, marketing, scheduling, and routes. The alliance will enable Allegiant, which does not currently fly to Mexico, to offer flights to Mexican leisure hotspots.</p><p>Meanwhile, Viva Aerobus will be able to add several routes to popular destinations in the US where Allegiant has a strong presence, like Las Vegas and Orlando. According to Allegiant, Viva Aerobus will have access to the Las Vegas-based airline's distribution network and point-of-sale process.</p><div type="image" title="Allegiant Air and Viva Aerobus' prospective 5-year route map." height="762" width="1016" msid="88092756" hostid="261"></div><p>Allegiant said in a press release that the pair intends the alliance to start in the first quarter of 2023, offering nonstop flights on routes that currently only have connecting service. However, there is one caveat. In May 2021, the Federal Aviation Administration downgraded Mexico to a Category 2 country, meaning airlines cannot create new service or routes, though that is still subject to change by the time the alliance begins. </p><p>According to Allegiant, there are over 250 potential routes that have been identified in the DOT application. Allegiant and Viva Aerobus are two individual ultra-low-cost carriers that, according to Allegiant, cannot independently create the network or meet the same level of customer benefit that the alliance will offer.</p><p>"Allegiant and Viva Aerobus operating together will be a tremendous win for consumers seeking affordable, nonstop <keyword id="11896628" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="travel" source="Orion">travel</keyword> between the US and Mexico," Allegiant CEO Maurice Gallagher said. "This groundbreaking alliance should reduce fares, stimulate traffic, and ultimately link many new trans-border cities with nonstop service. In short, it will bring meaningful ULCC competition to the US-Mexico market for the first time in history."</p><p>Allegiant said in a statement that it has invested $50 million into Viva Aerobus and Gallagher is planning to join the Mexican carrier's Board of Directors, subject to the approval of the Mexican Federal Economic Competition Commission.</p><div type="image" title="Allegiant Chairman and CEO Maurice J. Gallagher, Jr. and Viva Aerobus Chief Executive Officer Juan Carlos Zuazua." height="334" width="445" msid="88092759" hostid="261"></div><p>"This unique ULCC alliance will create new non-stop connectivity and more competition, strengthening the immense Hispanic VFR market and offering amazing holiday get-aways for residents of both nations," Viva Aerobus CEO  Juan Carlos Zuazua said.</p><p>According to Allegiant, the agreement between it and Viva Aerobus will, if approved, be the first ultra-low-cost international alliance in the airline industry. There are two low-cost alliances currently operating in the world, including U-Fly, a collection of airlines from Hong Kong, Mainland China, and South Korea, and the Value Alliance that consists of five Asia-Pacific airlines.</p><p>Low-cost and ultra-low-cost airlines differ because ULCCs provide fewer amenities and charge more fees than traditional low-cost carriers, therefore offering even lower fares, <a href="https://www.johnnyjet.com/ask-a-pilot-low-cost-vs-ultra-low-cost-airlines/">according to airline pilot Spencer Marker</a>.</p>

The top 10 were determined from the 385 airlines the organization monitors, according to AirlineRatings.</p><p><a href="https://www.airlineratings.com/news/top-twenty-safest-airlines-2022/">Unlike the agency's top 20 list for the world's safest airlines</a>, which ranks in order from highest to lowest, low-cost carriers are listed alphabetically.</p><p>This means AirlineRatings does not distinguish who came out on top, though all 10 boast a seven-star safety rating, except for Jetstar Japan under the Jetstar Group. According to <a href="https://www.iata.org/en/programs/safety/audit/iosa/registry?search=jetstar&amp;ordering=Relevance">The International Air Transport Association</a>, the airline is absent from its audit registry.

According to the agency, a Category 2 rating means the nation's laws, regulations, and oversight do not meet international safety standards.
