Lehigh Valley, PA—Low-cost airline Allegiant Air, LLC, announces another expansion of service to Orlando, Fla. by adding additional Thursday and Sunday flights beginning Feb. 15, 2007 through April 18, 2007.

�The Lehigh Valley has shown a tremendous demand for our low-cost service to Orlando,� said Maurice J. Gallagher, the airline�s president and CEO. �The expansion of an additional two flights will help more customers get to the fun and sun of Orlando at low-low fares and from the convenience of the Lehigh Valley International Airport. We are confident this schedule will have great appeal.�

The new schedule will allow even more vacation fun time with additional flights Thursday and Sunday. The new service departs Lehigh Valley International Airport at 3:05 p.m. arriving in Orlando at 5:35 p.m. Flights leaving Orlando depart at 12 p.m. arriving in the Lehigh Valley at 2:30 p.m. (all flight times are local.)

Allegiant Air inaugurated service from Lehigh Valley International Airport to Orlando Dec. 16, 2005. This is the third time the airline has expanded service to Orlando this year. The low-cost airline inaugurated the first flight to the Tampa Bay area Nov. 16.

Reservations may be made through the company�s website at www.allegiantair.com, the airline�s Reservations Center at 702-505-8888 or professional travel agents.

Located midway between Orlando�s world-class attractions and the world�s most famous beach - Daytona Beach, Orlando Sanford International Airport offers visitors the �best of both worlds.� Both destinations are only minutes away, ideally situated for those hoping to take a break from the cold at the beach or to experience the fun of Disney World, Universal Studios, SeaWorld and the rest of the excitement Florida has to offer.
