Las Vegas customers will be able to fly to cities they’ve never been able to travel to on Allegiant Air once the surprise $1.5 billion merger deal with Sun Country Airlines announced Sunday is completed later this year.
The two companies gave additional details of the deal to investors Monday morning on how they will blend the two low-fare leisure carriers that have similar cultures.
Executives characterized the deal as a win-win-win for consumers, both airlines’ employees and investors.
“We hold Sun Country in the highest regard, recognizing the close cultural connection between our two companies,” Allegiant CEO Greg Anderson said in a conference call Monday morning.
