Allegiant Air is a low-cost carrier and the 14th largest airline in the United States. It operates a fleet of more than 120 Airbus A319 and A320 aircraft. Based in Las Vegas, many know the carrier for its namesake stadium where the Super Bowl was played a few months ago. Today, it announced an incredible 44 new routes coming soon.

By connecting more cities, we’re making it easier for travelers to visit family and friends, access top leisure destinations, and create new memories.

Sounds great. Are they getting a huge influx of new planes to facilitate these changes? If not, they have to be making some serious cuts to the existing network.
