Allegiant Air customer review

(United States)

My family flew round trip from Rockford IL to Punta Gorda FL over the 2013 holidays. Our trip to Punta Gorda went very well. I am blind and one of the flight attendants came up to me as soon as I got seated with my family and offered me a personal safety briefing which I gladly accepted. The seats on the airplane (a Boeing MD80) weren't that comfortable and did not recline and there was no hot coffee available for purchase. The crew were professional and we got from point A to point B safely. On our return trip we were diverted at the last minute to Moline (2 hours away by car) because of freezing rain in Rockford. According to what passengers were told later we were unable to land in Rockford because there was a plane stopped on the runway and there was not sufficient room for us to land safely. On our arrival at the diversion airport the flight attendant working the forward cabin went through the usual post-flight announcements even going so far as to tell passengers not to smoke until they were outside the terminal to claim our luggage at the baggage claim area and how to book future travel on Allegiant. Upon our arrival at the gate we were informed—that in addition to the weather in Rockford our plane had a mechanical problem. Passengers were sent into the airport and told that further information would be provided to them when it became available. The flight attendant showed no sympathy. The Allegiant representative at Moline was wonderful. There was little information available about when—or even if—the plane would be repaired and sent back to Rockford. As we were leaving the airport the gate agent announced that the plane had been fixed and that anyone wishing to go to Rockford should go back to the boarding area. The real issue for me was the lack of professionalism from the crew on our return flight. I might have been willing to overlook the diversion and mechanical problems if the crew had been sympathetic calm and professional. But everything on the return flight added up to a never-again” experience.

Flight cancelled on December 31st with no reason given and no notification sent. Jan 1st rescheduled flight delayed 3 hours no reason given. Daughter has used the airline 2x now due to convenience (St Pete to Bangor) but is tired of the rude attendants (every flight she's been on and delays (every flight she's ever been on).

We were scheduled to depart at 9am on 20th Dec 2013 and were told the flight was delayed because of weather and runway was closed. Agreed it was snowing! However after a 6 hour delay during which the runway was open and Alaska Air was taking off and landing the Allegiant rep advised our flight was delayed until the next day at 8pm. On the return flight scheduled for Christmas day Dec 25th at 12.26 pm getting us home for Christmas dinner was cancelled due to "operational requirements" and wouldn't leave until 8.23 pm the 26th Dec. Airline employee told us they cancelled the flight because there weren't enough passengers! This was the only honest employee we spoke with.

Allegiant Air customer review

I flew round trip from Vegas on 23rd and 27th December. Between the two flights I had 15.5 hours of delay. Each time I was notified in advance but both occasions they didn't have a plane and had to fly one in from somewhere else. Allegiant is based in Las Vegas I don't understand why they didn't have back-up planes readily available. The flight that finally took place on the 23rd was on the oldest plane I have ever flown on. It smelt old and musty. The flight on 27th was supposed to take off at 3pm and didn't actually get off the ground until 2.15am. Instead of getting home at 4.30pm I got home at 4.15am. Spending so much time in the airport on those two days I was able to witness their operation. They didn't not get a single flight out at a reasonable time either day I was there. Next time I'll pay the extra few dollars to fly on another airline and get where I want to go. The only good part was my bag was not lost.

This is the second trip on Allegiant and the last one we take. The web site is confusing phone customer service is non-existent. We booked travel Phoenix to Grand Island and were told we could bring 1 handbag (like a backpack) on the trip. On the way back to Phoenix we had to pay $50 each for the same backpacks! We could have taken another flight to Omaha which is what we'd do in the future.

Flight 142 PHX to Wichita on Dec 23. Cheap cheap cheap. Horrible service. Same size jets as other airlines but the ticket agents won't let you carry on the same bags that fit in the above seat storage with all other airlines. Everything is too large so you have to pay $50 to let them check it. Plenty of room once I was on the plane for my bag just another way for them to sound cheap but they are not.

Some staff professional but others quite rude. Do not pay for the so-called priority boarding we were made to wait on the long check in line as the "security" man did not appear to understand that we should have access to the priority line. Seats uncomfortable some food selections unavailable flights both ways delayed and so on. Having said that they are cheap and fly a route we travel. Like the small airports. But if there was any other option for this same route non-stop I'd gladly pay more to avoid Allegiant.

Flew December 21 from Knoxville to Punta Gorda. Flight was on time. Paid to sit in the third row seats were fine. Overall this airline is just fine! Significantly cheaper than all other airlines and flying to a small airport meant no traffic jams. Yes you have to pay to choose your seat and to carry on an item but still it is so much less expensive and trip went well.

Reasonably well-organized. Purchasing online was easy. Received email update when departure time changed. Flight was on time both directions. However employees could be a little more attentive. The gate attendant in Mesa was brusque. I was 'blessed' to sit beside someone with a dog - and that person was also traveling with family who had a very small child located elsewhere on the plane. The dog was whiny - as was the child and the adults were not terribly successful in quieting either. Even though there was considerable disruption in my row no attempt was made by the flight attendants to placate those other passengers who were affected. Sadly with the exception of the safety information and selling food and drinks (oh and walking through with a trash bag) they were rarely seen. Yes I'll likely use them again - but only because of the airports they serve.

We booked outbound and return seat tickets from Little Rock Arkansas to Sanford Florida (and back) on Allegiant Airlines (Flight #'s 728 and 729) at an additional $$$ expense to be told on each leg of the trip there were no assigned seats and that it was "open seating" which effectively "cheating us" out of our money. When we went to check in the staff was undermanned and we flew on Sun Valley and Miami Air rather than Allegiant (apparently subcontractor airlines?). It was an awful trip on this "a la cart airline".
