GREEN BAY DOUBLES DOWN ON LAS VEGAS AS ALLEGIANT AIR INCREASES FLIGHTS WITH INTRODUCTORY $69* FARE

(Las Vegas, Nev.)– In response to the strong demands of the Green Bay, Wis. market, low-cost Allegiant Air, LLC, today announced that it will double the number of nonstop flights to Las Vegas. To kick off the new four-day-a-week service, Allegiant will offer a limited time $69* one-way fare.

“Green Bay’s response to our brand of low-fare, nonstop, all-jet service has exceeded our expectations Maurice J. Gallagher, Allegiant Air president & CEO, said. “We are pleased to announce the addition of two more weekly flights that will help twice as many customers in Green Bay get to the fun and excitement of Las Vegas. We are confident that this new schedule will have great appeal.”

The expanded service will begin Nov. 11 and will offer nonstop service to Las Vegas Thursday, Friday, Sunday and Monday. Service from Green Bay began July 28 with flights Thursday and Sunday. All flights depart Austin Straubel International Airport at 1:30 p.m. arriving in Las Vegas at 3:25 p.m. Flights leaving Las Vegas will depart at 7:20 a.m. arriving in Green Bay at 12:50 p.m. (all flight times are local).

Allegiant’s $69* one-way introductory fare must be purchased by Sept. 10, 2005, and is valid for travel through Jan. 31, 2006. To take advantage of this expanded service, reservations can be made on the airline’s website at www.allegiantair.com, through the airline’s Reservations and Information Center at 800-432-3810 or through professional travel agents.
