| DRich Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 51 Posts: 4966 | Soon they should start flying the Airbus 220. Right now I believe they are only flying the smaller regional jets. I heard that they have 80 of the Airbus 220 on order and supposed to take delivery of one per month. The flight I booked is scheduled for an A220. I am actually excited because the A220 is one of the few planes that I have not yet been on. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

We have ~700,000 people in the urban area but no flights further Fort Lauderdale 1041 miles. Airport is ranked #144. |

Will the $100.00 trick get you an upgrade to first class, assuming the seat is available? |

| Gandler Member since: Aug 15, 2019 Threads: 27 Posts: 4256 | They are opening up this summer in my airport as well, very cheap flights (80 bucks in this case for most of their flights). 80 dollars for round trip to New Orleans is a pretty good deal (especially because currently there are no nonstop offerings from here) -that is the only one that caught my eye, the others were places that did not interest me in-. I don't know anything about them other than I was looking for stories on airport expansion projects this morning and they were popping up (most stories were posted in the last two days so very new). It sounds like they are a new airline that is spreading if that is happening in your area as well and they are trying to get their name out there with unique routes and cheap prices. For 80 bucks and just a two-hour each way flight I can probably suck up even the worst airline experience. |

I agree. I am just happy that this will be the first direct flight from RSW to Las Vegas as no other airlines offer one. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Allegiant does fly to PGD which is only 30 air miles away from RSW, but as of right now they don't fly to Las Vegas. Allegiant currently has a policy against long flight, but that may change. RSW Fort Myers [Southwest Florida Intl], FL, US PGD Punta Gorda, FL, US |

Sadly, they don't fly to Vegas from Punta Gorda. They actually have quite a few flights from there and I think they are the only commercial airline that serves that airport. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |
