I've flown Allegiant Air several times when I need to go to a small town, as they often fly directly to places that would require a connection on the major airlines. My experiences at Allegiant have been mixed. I will say that my last set of flights, mid August 2021, were very pleasant with happy people at the counter and generally kind attendants in the air. Also, this last time we flew on Allegiant, our flights were on time, and the app was reasonably straightforward to use. Is Allegiant perfect? No. It is a low-cost carrier with tons of rules that cause increased charges. And, being a smaller carrier, they tend to be most impacted by airport issues, so if there's a delay, you can expect Allegiant to be the last plane allowed to leave once the weather clears. Seats are thin and uncomfortable. The airline doesn't expect you to "settle in" and thus provides a very small tray at the seat. There is no wifi in the air or in-flight entertainment beyond what you bring yourself. Snacks and drinks are for purchase only. But for the price and the ability to fly from the Tampa bay area directly to Greenville SC, I really can't complain. Here's a tip: they will try to seat families together, so either reserve all seats or don't reserve seats. If you reserve a couple seats hoping that they'll seat your kids with you in front, there's a good chance that you'll end up re-seated (together) in one of the last rows. read more

My family just returned from a to Florida (FLL) from Atlantic City, NJ (ACY) and our experience was great. Our flight was on time both wats between ACY to FLL. Staff was courteous and helpful at check-in and in-flight. I would highly recommend Allegient out of Atlantic City, NJ. GH read more

My husband, two daughters and mom were on Flight 366 from Punta Gorda airport in Florida to Cincinnati airport on August 31st 2025 and we had a very awful experience. We were convinced the pilot was going to crash on landing. Before we were about to land, the pilot made an announcement saying that skies were clear and winds only 8mph as we were coming into Cincinnati, so we expected an uneventful landing. However, as we descended the plane felt as if it began to fish-tale -- the nose and tail swaying back and forth. No announcement was made to explain what was going on. My husband, who was in Aeromedical Evacuation for the Air Force and who had been on many flights, was very concerned - he said it felt as if the pilot did not have control of the plane. Thank goodness we landed and could get off. However, I am very hesitant to travel with allegiant again. read more

I had a flight disrupted by Hurricane Milton. My friends received their refunds for the arrival and departure flight but I only received a refund for my arrival. In three different phone calls, I've been told that the refund was on its way. I was first told it was Oct 7, but later told it wasn't issued until Oct 11. Today is Oct 26 and I have not received a refund. I was told that I would get an email to track the refund. That didn't happen. Allegiant defrauds their customers. Do not fly Allegiant Air. Their online reviews suck as well. read more

Worst flying experience of my life. Delayed our flight multiple time keeping us stuck at airport over night. Then when plane arrived said it was no longer leaving until 12 hrs later! Then finally after more delays, kept us on the tarmac for 2hrs before take-off. Will not ever use again!! read more

It's a budget airline. Folks should know that going in. I don't so much care about the fees because it sure beats driving from Orlando to WNC and back for the weekend! I'm not overly tall or wide, so the seats are fine for 1.5 flight. I can pack for a weekend in a personal item sized bag, so you really can't beat the price. No frills. Keeps the cost down. Tiny tray tables, though. read more

Allegiant Air - Airlines Near Me - Greer, South Carolina

Waited on hold for more than 90 minutes listening to "we're sorry for the long wait time " then heard "transferring you to an agent " then disconnected! Terrible customer service read more

Two words. Miserable experience. Flying was always a nightmare but this airline takes that experience to a whole new level. read more

This is absolutely the worst airline on the planet. They have NO customer service AT ALL! My son's flight got canceled at the very last minute and even though we had purchased "Flex Trip" the "Bundle" and every extra option available, when he rebooked his trip home on the very next Allegiant flight out the following Monday, they charged him extra to the tune of $292.00. Now, we need customer service and the "customer service " phone number rings busy ALL the time! How do we get a refund? Fly this airline at your own risk! read more

Booked Allegiant because it was the only direct flight from Fort Lauderdale to Asheville. They cancelled the return flight at 1am the morning of the flight with no stated reason. Had to book a return flight with American Airlines. Stay away from Allegiant Air, not worth the uncertainty of flights and reliability read more

Admittedly got us to our destination on time. Aisles are wider than normal. At that, my praises end. What a rip-off!! How do they get away with advertising such low prices? I know - read the fine print. But to sell you a ticket and then tell you to pay extra for a seat on the plane?!? Pay $5/boarding pass?? Pay for carry-on luggage?!? Of course, Allegiant seems less expensive but after all is said and done, it's the same as any well-searched, early purchase ticket on any airline. Fool me once, as the saying goes! Never again!!! read more

Allegiant has managed to squeeze the maximum number of seats possible under the 180-passenger capacity limit under the AirBus 320 certification. This means if you are a normal adult you will feel more crammed into a plane than you ever have felt before. If you're 6'2" like myself, buying the "Legroom +" seat will almost allow you to rest your feet on the floor (but not quite). Their 17" seat width is the real killer: I take up at least a quarter of the seat next to me, so unless there is an empty adjacent seat, brace yourself for a miserably claustrophobic experience. read more

I choose Allegiant Air to fly from Albuquerque, NM to Las Vegas, NV in September, 2019. I was very pleased with the experience and the price. I will consider AA everytime I fly out to Las Vegas in the future. It was alot cheaper than the other airline I have flown with. read more

We flew to Florida on Allegiant Airlines and used our new suitcase that we though was airport proof. We were wrong. It is a molded metal and the dent on the side is like 4 inches. Anyway the manager at the airport gave us a 25.00 onboard credit, sent a report and said we would hear from someone within the week. we did not. So we contacted them. They responded stating we were only getting the onboard credit. I responded and told them this was not satisfactory as we just purchased the suitcase for 80.00. I was surprised that they responded right away and are giving us a check for 72.00. Thank you allegiant air for doing the right thing!! read more

Allegiant Air - Airlines Near Me - Greer, South Carolina

Budget airlines, plain and simple. There are charges every step along the way. Terrible customer service. No way to transfer flights without buying a whole new ticket and they're always late. I think that covers it..... read more

They tout the tickets from Fort Lauderdale to Asheville for the low price of $170! Oh, wait - that is one way. Oh, you want a seat with that? Extra charges everywhere. Want us to schedule a rental car? No problem, but once booked, just try to change it! Hahahaha! Got you, sucker? Want to talk to customer service? Oh yes, there is a charge for this, too. Final price for me - $635. Never again. And get a load of the line for the rental car! read more

Allegiant Air - Allegiant will happily set you up with a rental car, too! - Airlines Near Me - Greer, South Carolina

Good value if you know how to play the game. However, add all fees up and compare with other airlines as its not always cheaper. Here is what I recommend. Pay in advance for one checked bag and use that for your group if traveling in cold months. I find this a great little airline. Always on time, very friendly staff and clean planes. We usually buy food and take it on the flight. I do use this often to travel to Asheville NC as its the only airline with a direct flight from Tampa. I hear they will be opening a route from Sarasota Fl to Asheville! Yeah! read more

Tried to reschedule my flight to North Carolina during the FLORENCE Hurricanes and Allegiant would not allow it. There reasoning is my request was during the 7 days prior to flight. I COULD NOT PREDICT A HURRICANE WITH FLOODS. I just lost $295. I will never book Allegiant again.... EVER! read more

No Customer Service, and they don't care! I fly Allegiant a dozen + times throughout the year and have been very pleased with the service provided in the air and at the terminal. The past 10 segments I flew, they were either on time or even early! However, when it comes to reaching someone in customer service over the phone or via email chat, it is beyond frustrating, unprofessional and unacceptable! Basically, it is impossible. I have been trying to reach a live person now for over a week via the phone! I have screen shots to show and prove that I have called 2x with over 60 minute wait time and finally hung up. And, 4x more with 30-45 minute wait times, leading me to hang up. I've also called multiple times where the phone line won't even ring to connect me because they are so busy that the message states that "we are unable to connect your call..." I also went on the website and tried to e-chat with a customer service person and I received a reply that it would be over 30 minutes that someone could e-chat with me!?? Updated: I received a reply from and was asked to PM with my scenario. I did. In detail. And Allegiant's response? They don't care! I asked for a $200 voucher for future flights since I currently booked 4 segments without their promo code working. Because of this I also paid over $200 on the flights because when I went back to book, the fares went up!!! Bottom line, Allegiant customer service does not exist. Poor business practices. And, they simply Just Don't Care!!!! read more

See all

#Allegiantairlines just a warning to people out there who get sucked in by discounts..this airline costs more than others when you add in luggage, travel from their Sanford airport is hugely expensive, they don't allow changes to tickets, their customer service is HORRIBLE AND biggest travel mistake I made was trying this airline. Asked to speak to a manager and they say one will call me back in 48 hours! They brag about how they are growing but I will NEVER make this mistake again. If I could do negative stars, I would. read more

One of the reasons I purchased a 2nd home in Asheville was that it was such a short flight from Fort Lauderdale and I live 5 minutes from airport but, I have yet to (EVER) arrive on time. Once I was only 2 hours late. And there are some flight attendants that are just loud. Really loud and like to talk about themselves. A lot. I don't care. It's annoying read more

Flying Allegiant is kind of like going to a surgeon in Mexico. The savings seem really good at the time, but when it's all said and done you wish you would've just paid the $40 to be treated like a human. read more

It was my first time flying Allegiant air. I purchased a round trip from Asheville to Fort Lauderdale and paid for the luggage pack online since they mention it is more expensive at the airport. At the check-in, the allegiant app wasn't working and the attendant wanted to charge $5 to print my boarding ticket. It took about 30 m minutes to resolve the issue, I said I would prefer to pay, but she said I couldn't because of the system. The flight was ok, the nightmare started on my trip back. I arrived 2 1/2 hours prior to the flight time, just in case the airport was busy. The flight was delayed, they get changing gates, flight status was nowhere to be found, and no airline agents at the counter, or near, to give the passengers any information. 4 hours later people were getting agitated because it was close to midnight and we needed to make arrangements such as rental cars, changing flights, etc. After walking around the airport to find someone from the Allegiant I was able to contact an employee and politely explained that people really needed an update. She was extremely rude, to me and other passengers who were trying to deal with the situation. Helpless! My flight was supposed to leave at 8 pm, and it was 11:50, and no information at all. I asked if she could book me a flight on a different airline, since I had already paid for transportation from Asheville to Greenville (where I live), she said if I would pay would have to book it and pay for it myself. So, I asked for the next flight, and it was the next day to Greenville, I enquired about my checked bag and she said it would be in Greenville the next day. I left the airport having to pay for transportation, rent accommodations for the night, and transportation to the airport the next day. When we landed in Greenville, my bag is nowhere to be found. Again I had to search everywhere for an allegiant employee to get the necessary information to find my luggage. All I got was " call the customer service line". I spent 5 days calling their customer service line, being on hold for more than 4 hours at the time, and nothing! I sent several e-mails and completed the appropriate form on their website. I started calling the airports to try to locate my luggage. It was at the Asheville airport, and the only reason I was able to get this information, was because a very friendly and kind employee of the airport helped me. Allegiant still hasn't returned any of my emails. I had to drive 2 hours to pick up my bag because the only information I received was that I would have to pay for FedEx to have it delivered to me. It is beyond unbelievable the lack of customer service. People can say it is a budget airline, but in reality, when you factor in all the extra charges, like bags, seats, etc, the difference is not that much. Budget-friendly or not, consumers are spending their money, in this case, hard-earned money with a company, the bare minimum we can expect in return is a good service. I will definitely never fly allegiant again. read more

Have to agree, worst airline ever. Really? ???? Have to get off the plane due to mechanical issues. How hard is this?

The worst. Unprofessional. Fights DO NOT LEAVE the airport. Rude managers (when they finally call you back). I knew about all of the extra charges but they do not adhere to DOT cancellation rules (within 24 hours). I guess you get what you pay for (and less!) read more

I am very disappointed and dissatisfied with Allegiant Airlines today. My sister and I have been looking forward to her visit today. She arranged vacation time for her four day visit with me in Florida. She got transportation to Asheville last night and made arrangements for sleeping accommodations, so she could make her morning flight to Punta Gorda. Sometime last night she received a text to tell her the flight had been cancelled. I am assuming we are not alone in our disappointment.....but, my question is this: Allegiant Airlines, do you care? Do you intend to continue this poor customer service? read more

Allegiant Airlines was extremely difficult to work with concerning car rentals at the airport. They claim that we could rent a car and return it to another location via their website. However, when we called to verify and make an additional rental not only would they not allow the rental car company the freedom to do so they refused to refund our money when we asked to merely cancel the reservation so we could start over. The person on the phone actually hung up on us after an hour (not an exaggeration, we timed it) on hold to speak with someone. We will never again use Allegiant and strongly suggest you do not either. read more

Over an 8 hour layover that ruined my trip and stuck me in an airport with my 2 year old for several hours. No apologies - just free pizza and no other compensation for ruining the entire vacation by effectively taking 1 evening and the following day to recover from the horrible travel out of a 3 day vacation. From talking with the GSP airport employees, this is a frequent occurence since Allegiant came to GSP and happens almost every Thursday and Monday, which are the only days Allegiant flies out of GSP. My bags were locked in an office when I arrived because I got to the carousel 10 minutes after landing and the employees wanted to go home (it was after 1 AM), which also included the car seat for my child and would have left me completely stranded with a baby if not for the food court employee who helped me find someone to get my belongings from the locked office. To make matters worse as I checked my bags to return home I was met by a rude, nasty woman who asked if I had just one bag to check. I told her yes and a car seat and she acted like I was an idiot for not mentioning the car seat as counting as a bag so I told her they didn't charge me for the car seat checking on the departing flight to which her response was "Did I say I was going to charge you?!" I have flown on trips at least twice per year since I can remember and have NEVER EVER had this kind of layover and rude treatment in ANY instance. I understand that occasionally there are issues beyond the control of the airline that lead to inconvenient experiences, but this was over the top and I have always been compensated for the much shorter delays I experienced with other airlines - nothing but pizza here. I guess it's true - you get what you pay for and I would gladly pay 3 times the cost of this ticket to avoid any risk of such a terrible experience in the future. read more

The worst airline ever! Not only are they always late, they charge you for every tiny thing. I booked a rental car thru them and found out at the end it did not include the taxes and airport fees. They suck!!! By the time you pay all the extra fees for printing your boarding pass, picking a seat paying for a checked bag that can only be 40 lbs and paying for a carry on, you would have saved money by booking a normal airline. Then there is their safety record..,, that is a whole other scary story. read more

Is there zero stars available? If the flight departs you may be ok, however if there are any problems they leave you hanging. Flight 821 from PBI to Asheville delayed, delayed, cancelled. No agent with any authority around (purposely). Claimed it wasn't their fault but weather is gorgeous (7-10). Don't even try to call their customer service unless you have 30 min and extra battery. NEVER AGAIN. read more

This may be the most uncaring, unprofessional airlines to have ever popped up. I don't care about the initial cost being low, after you add buying a seat, bags, and a cup of water...add that to there's 1 plane in the airport, if the slightest issue pops up, you're screwed and they do not care. Don't bother trying to contact customer service because there is none. I'm writing this while passing the 1 hr mark on hold trying to find out if my already 6 hr delayed flight from St Petersburg to Asheville will actually happen. Do not fall for the cost carrot. read more

Worst airline experience ever. These guys won't be in business for very long as their reliability and maintenance issues are becoming well known in the industry. Round trip flights BWI-AVL for a week vacation: both cancelled. One rescheduled for the next day. One not -- left on your own to figure things out. Worst on-time and maintenance records. Put these guys on your DO NOT FLY list! read more

We just took a few days off and flew with Allegiant Air. Check in was no problem just set the phone on the reader and show ID. We booked a package deal with a rental car and that went super smoothly too. Just hope our next experience meets the quality of the trip we just experienced read more
