“Wow what a rip off”

(United States)

Not Verified | Wow what a rip off. So I had never flown with this airline before but they were offering significantly cheaper flights so took a chance. The mobile app was confusing and the option to check bags was grayed out. When we got to the airport I'm informed I could have checked bags online for $30 each but since I hadn't (grayed out) it would cost me $75 per bag. So I cough up this additional expense and then board. In flight I'm offered a beverage and snack and then charged per item. Nothing complimentary on this airline! Next I complete my trip and go to head home on my round trip flight and am informed my bags were not checked for round trip and I need to pay yet another $75 dollars. So my $200 flight ended up costing me right around $450 after all the hidden fees. What a scam these guys are running. Be warned.

“Allegiant doesn't care for your plans”

(United States)

Not Verified | Plane has been delayed for 3 hours now. Nobody is doing anything with airplane and so far I've lost my show tickets. All I want is a reimbursement. Allegiant doesn't care for your plans or you as a person. If they did they would reimbursement all of us. Never flying here again and don't recomend this airline. Time to expose them on social media.

“What was your goal? To embarrass me?”

(United States)

Not Verified | We flew from Ft. Lauderdale to Norfolk VA on Nov. 28th on flight 496. I would give 1 star but giving 2 stars to Allegiant Air because the pilot landed the plane with perfection and most of the crew were nice except for one woman. This flight attendant walked all the way from the back of the plane to my seat just to tell me that I didn’t flush the toilet. Now, I remember flushing it and thinking “wow that’s so loud,” but maybe it didn't go down all the way or maybe I my pregnancy brain got the best of me and I actually didn’t flush. You would have thought I left something disgusting behind but it was only toilet paper. Either way, what gives you the audacity to walk all the way up to my seat to tell me that I forgot to flush in front of the other passengers? When I tell you that I thought I did, you continue to argue with me that I in fact did not. What was your goal? To embarrass me? To teach me a life lesson? Did you feel better about yourself after telling a paying customer that you all just cancelled a flight on the night before after waiting half a day in the airport only to have it cancelled after boarding because the crew was timed out? We got a free soda for our trouble and a rude crew member. My entire life I have worked in the service industry from being a server to ER nurse and I understand that sometimes we get annoyed with people but I have always treated them with dignity and respect. You are dealing with the public and you represent a company that is providing a service and without that service, you wouldn’t have a paycheck. Keep up the attitude and you will be flushing your career down the toilet.

"they don’t seem to care"

(United States)

Not Verified | My wife and I flew to Illinois for a funeral for my best friend in high school. I requested wheel chair assistance. We had wheelchair assistance plus we were allowed to take my wife’s walker up the ramp & they would store it until we got to Rockford, I’ll. Upon our arrival at Rockford the plane emptied out and my wife and I were left on the plane as other assisted passenger’s were taken off the plane as no one came to help us. One of the crew members had to call down to the airport for assistance. On our trip back from Rockford to Punta Gorda we arrived in Punta Gorda and got up in line like other passengers. The stewardess very rudely said you have to wait until all the other passengers deplane before you can. Well, lady we were ignored on our flight up so why wouldn’t we push forward to the front of the plane to make sure we’re not forgotten. We along with others were assisted off the plane in Punta Gorda. When we got to the bottom of the ramp we looked down at our walker that had been unloaded only to find the brake handle had been broken. We filed a claim ticket for the broken walker. We have yet to hear from the airline about this claim. I took the walker to a shop in Fort Myers and the gentleman told me it would cost $85.00 dollars for him to send it into be fixed plus the cost of labor and parts. He said I would be better off to buy a new one. I ordered a brake handle online for $24.00 of which I couldn’t find the right one but was able to replace the handle but the brake does not work. Needless to say we will pay more for our flights rather than fly Allegiant again. This was a very bad experience and on top of everything they don’t seem to care. Their attitude is probably they don’t care as they have plenty of other passengers that will fly with them.

"super frustrating!"

(United States)

Not Verified | I have flown Allegiant 4 times in 3 weeks- same personal item (backpack) each time with no issues. On my 5th flight I went to board and the gate agent said I needed to talk to another one of the gate agents - not knowing why? I was asked to put my bag in their measuring device / it was overstuffed a little and she said you have to pay $75 now or you won’t get on the plane. I was flabbergasted. I explained I purchased this this backpack for exactly this reason and made sure it was in their personal item measurement requirements. Her comment to me was - Well I guess you are just lucky for the the 1st 4 flights and saved money. I was shocked and very mad. Paid for the carryon so I didn’t miss my flight - Mad and frustrated - got in my seat, tested the size of my backpack and it fit under my seat in front of me, but put it in the overhead bin, since they made me pay $75 for a space in the bin. Let’s just say- the flight was not full, we waited on the tarmac 45 minutes to take off, because they had to check everyone’s boarding pass individually again because individuals had not shown up for the flight, and top it off the overhead bins were 1/2 full. So the fee they made me pay was more than my flight- how is that even right? To finish off my trip I had one more leg of my flights from Las Vegas to Provo, UT. Checked in with the exact same backpack as a personal item and had no issues with its size and it was put under the seat in front of me with no questions. I will not be flying with Allegiant Air anytime soon - super frustrating!

“Not a single care given!”

(United States)

Not Verified | TERRIBLE! Got on one plane, to sit for an hour to get off the plane, then wait 4 hours for another plane, to get on a plane to sit down and be told the pilot time is up and they can't fly. Got off flight called customer service 4 times in total, flight rebooked for the NEXT DAY! First told leaving at noon, then told leaving at 8am, then told ten am. Now I have no boarding pass, told to go wait in line. They do not care! All for a 1.25 hour flight. Waste of my time. I was on hold that long! Not a single care given!

"Find another airline"

(United States)

Trip Verified | I had a family health emergency and had to cancel my flight. They refused to work with me refunding the ticket and issued a credit which I will not be able to use. Will lose the entire amount. Also, they are a “cheap” airline and the ticket indeed is cheap, however, you have to pay for your seat, your carry on, your checked baggage, and if you want priority boarding. Any food you want including water must be paid for. Find another airline!

"planes are so dirty"

(United States)

Trip Verified | This airline should not even be allowed to fly. Bad service, flight attendants could not be worse, planes are so dirty that smell bad! When I boarded my seat was wet and greasy. Complained with flight attendant and all she did was to give me a piece of paper towel and advise me to clean it myself!! This was on flight 481 (FLL to AVL). On the return flight (496 AVL to FLL), boarding process started at 3:00 pm and was interrupted due to maintenance after 1:17h there is not even a agent at the gate and nobody had the courtesy to even provide an update. The worst is that this is just their routine. According to FAA chances of mechanic failures on Allegiant planes are 3.5 X higher than the average airline in the US. They changed the name but Allegiant Air is the same Las WestJet…

"They should be ashamed"

(United States)

Trip Verified | As I have flown so many times with Allegiant Air, recently I flew with them for my girls trip to NC. They should be ashamed of how they “handle” their consistent, returning, paying customers. I boarded my flight, row 4, and as usual, no overhead space for my carry on luggage. The flight attendants offered no assistance in trying to find space in the overhead compartments, and said, “you just have to look”. They also do not police patrons who board first, sitting further back, who just wanna throw their luggage up in front by so they can just grab it and go once we’ve reached our destination. I flew with 2 friends who managed to find spots, I however did not, so my luggage was taken by a flight attendant, who said it would be complementary checked, and was then taken off the plane. When we arrived at our destination, I went to the baggage claim, and when I saw my luggage, I couldn’t believe my eyes! The handle on my luggage literally was snapped clean off. No note, no one to meet me to explain its condition, just my bag circling the carousel with the broken off handle laying on top of my luggage. Went to customer service, directed to the Allegiant counter, filled out the claim form and was told that a representative would be contacting me. Received an email requesting pictures, the cost of my luggage, my mailing address and phone number, which gave me hope that perhaps compensation would be made. I am sharing my experience along with pictures of the condition of my luggage before I boarded the plane and then when I claimed it at the airport. I followed the instructions I was given. Not to mention I paid a carry-on charge of $30 which I feel I should be refunded since they took my luggage off the plane. Following is an email I received from Allegiant. Allegiant Air takes no responsibility for or accepts any liability for damage to my luggage and basically blamed me for having what they say is luggage with wear and tear not sustainable to the various handlings of luggage. My luggage is not very old and in perfect condition. So I guess this means they feel it was susceptible to damage. Just wanted to warn fellow travelers of this unfortunate experience and hope no one requires customer service with Allegiant Airlines because it is awful.

"Worst airline ever"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Worst airline ever. The flight there got canceled till the following morning due to fog, and the same thing happened on the way back. We had to book another night at the hotel last minute. The airline offered no accommodations and no refunds. They did not offer a refund for the hotel. Will never fly with them again.
