Allegiant Air today announced the airline is offering a $49 “Leaving Las Vegas Sale” for flights from Las Vegas to the seven cities on the airline`s scheduled route network.

Travel on the special web fares must be completed by February 12, 2004. The “Leaving Las Vegas” sale will be available only until September 21, 2003 for travel between September 5, 2003 and February 12, 2004. The special web fare will not be available on Sunday departures from Las Vegas. The airline`s regular low fares are available on flights to Las Vegas from all cities on Allegiant`s route network.
“Allegiant Air`s low fare non-stop service to and from Las Vegas has been a big hit with travelers this summer in both our established and new markets,” said Mark Peterson, VP Marketing and Sales. “We wanted to do something very special to thank all our customers flying to and from Las Vegas, and our $49 `Leaving Las Vegas Sale` on the web will make our great low prices even more attractive.”
The $49 one-way fares on flights from Las Vegas are subject to availability. Certain flights may be sold out during peak travel periods. No advance purchase or overnight stay is required. The fares are nonrefundable, and previously purchased tickets may not be exchanged for the “Leaving Las Vegas” sale fare. A $2.50 per segment web discount the airline normally offers for web bookings will not apply during the sale period.
