Allegiant adds eight routes in Southwest Florida

Staff Tampa Bay Business Journal

Allegiant Airlines will almost double its service to Southwest Florida this fall, adding eight new routes to its existing 11 at the Charlotte County Airport.

Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport Director Rick Piccolo sees the elevated competition for his embattled airport, but said there is a bright side.

He told the Sarasota Herald-Tribune the new routes bringing people to Southwest Florida only can help to enlighten people from new areas across the country to the region's charms.

By comparison, Allegiant serves six cities out of St. Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport, according to the Herald-Tribune.

The Las Vegas-based airline?s beefed up service to Punta Gorda will bring thousands of new tourists to the region each year.
