Allegiant expands service at FLL airport with 4 new destinations. See the routes
As one airline exits Fort Lauderdale, another is expanding its footprint.
Allegiant Air is expanding service with four new nonstop routes out of Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport starting in the fall.
The low-cost airline announced the routes on Tuesday May 19, with prices starting at $59.
The new flight options out of FLL:
- Boston
- Omaha, Nebraska
- Pittsburgh
- Kansas City, Missouri
The expansion comes as the airport continues to adjust after the loss of Spirit Airlines.
In the early-morning hours of May 2, Spirit canceled all flights across the U.S., Caribbean and Latin America, citing a collapse driven by insurmountable financial pressures and a “sudden and sustained rise in fuel prices.”
According to the Miami Herald, travel analysts have warned that Spirit’s absence could push fares higher, particularly at FLL, where the airline carried the largest share of passengers.
Allegiant’s Boston route is scheduled to begin Oct. 1 with introductory one-way fares starting as $79. Flights to Omaha, Kansas City and Pittsburgh begin Oct. 2. Fares start at $79 for Omaha and Kansas City, and $59 for Pittsburgh.
“We’re excited to announce these new routes and believe it is an important time for Allegiant to increase travel options in these markets,” Allegiant’s chief commercial officer Drew Wells said.
“Our mission is to offer service where it is needed most, and these additions ensure that affordable fares can remain available to consumers despite industry changes.”
Outside of FLL, Allegiant also announced new service from St. Pete-Clearwater to Philadelphia and Columbia, Missouri; Orlando-Sanford to Trenton, New Jersey; and Punta Gorda to La Crosse, Wisconsin.
Airport data from March 2026 showed Spirit held the largest share of passenger traffic at FLL with a 24.5% total share, followed by JetBlue at 22%.
Allegiant accounted for 4.1% of passenger traffic in March but saw the largest increase among major carriers that month, with a 26.8% increase.
Tickets for all routes are available on Allegiant’s website.
