Lehigh Valley Celebrates Two Years of Fun in the Sun

Lehigh Valley, PA Low-cost airline, Allegiant Air, LLC, celebrates the two-year anniversary of nonstop, jet-service to the fun n’ sun of Orlando, Fla. from the Lehigh Valley.  The Las Vegas-based airline inaugurated service from The Lehigh Valley International Airport to Orlando Sanford International Airport Dec. 16, 2005.

“We are pleased to celebrate our two-year anniversary of nonstop service to Orlando,” said Maurice J. Gallagher, the airline’s president and CEO.  “We look forward to a continued successful relationship between Allegiant, Lehigh Valley International Airport, the local communities, travel agents and all of our customers.”

Allegiant Air completes its second year of service Dec. 16.  During the past year alone, Allegiant has carried more than 91,000 customers to and from Orlando.  Since beginning service in the market, the low-fare carrier has lowered the average fare paid by Lehigh Valley area customers more than 25 percent.  The low-cost airline has saved customers more than $2 million by bringing everyday low-fares to Lehigh Valley communities during the last 12 months.  The carrier inaugurated nonstop service to the Tampa Bay, Fla. area Nov. 16, 2006 and service to Fort Lauderdale, Fla. began Nov. 14, 2007.

The Allegiant Vacations division of the company will offer low-cost packages with 58 of Orlando and Daytona Beach’s most exciting hotel properties. Partner properties include The Swan, The Dolphin, The Hilton in Lake Buena Vista and the Radisson Parkway. Low-cost packages are available to include hotel, car and amusement park tickets for additional savings.

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.
