Allegiant 7 new Florida routes: 5 are monopoly plays.
Allegiant Air announced seven new routes from East Coast cities to Florida, five of which have no direct nonstop competition. Only CVG-Orlando faces Delta, Frontier, and Southwest, while PVD-FLL sees JetBlue and Southwest. As a ULCC, Allegiant's base fares are already low, and the monopoly routes could see even cheaper introductory pricing. Starting dates are unconfirmed, but the network expansion positions Allegiant to undercut legacy carriers. The airline also plans to add Allegiant First premium seats next spring.
