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 18 routes that are getting the axe this summer and fall. The majority are being lost from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS), Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), and Nashville International Airport (BNA).

It boggles my mind that the glitziest, highest profile sports event of the year occurs in a stadium wearing the brand name of an ultra low cost airline most people don’t even know exists #SBLVIII pic.twitter.com/JvxmDuAhHw

This tweet continues to make me laugh.
Anthony’s Take: Allegiant recently added 10 routes (more here) and these latest cuts are seasonal adjustments with some routes possibly coming back next year.

Props to Allegiant for announcing these cuts and to you for publishing them. So often, bloggers breathlessly announce lots of new service from an airline without bringing up that the planes and crews had to come from some other routes.
