The self-proclaimed “Official Airline for Sunshine” will launch the new scheduled service from the Lansing Capital City Airport (Lansing) to Sanford International Airport (Orlando) with complete vacation packages including air, hotel and car rental starting as low as $241** for three nights, per person based on double occupancy. “We are extremely pleased to expand the Allegiant brand of low-fare, nonstop, jet service to Orlando,” Maurice J.
