“We’re very excited to offer our brand of friendly, ultra-low-cost, nonstop service to our newest Allegiant city,” said Drew Wells, Allegiant vice president of planning and revenue. “We’re sure travelers from Upstate New York will love our convenient flights to enjoy all of the fun, excitement and beauty that these Florida cities offer.”
