More destinations across the U.S. and beyond
More ways to earn and redeem loyalty rewards and benefits
Greater access to international travel
A stronger airline offering greater choice for travelers
What to Expect Right Now
The integration of Allegiant and Sun Country represents a long-term evolution—but today's travel experience remains unchanged.
Both airlines will continue operating independently while the integration is underway.
Travelers should continue to:
- Use the airline they booked with for all aspects of their travel
- Expect no immediate changes to flights, schedules, or existing policies
- Use existing loyalty and credit card programs as they do today
As the integration continues, updates will be communicated in advance.
