They aren’t required to report.

Look again at the header. Only carriers carrying at least 1% of the total domestic traffic are required to report. Allegiant has scheduled service but it doesn’t equal at least 1% of the domestic traffic.

Here’s the Title 14 relevant section (see the link on the BTS page quoted by DAB757)

                TITLE 14--AERONAUTICS AND SPACE

CHAPTER II–OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Sec. 234.3 Applicability.

This part applies to certain domestic scheduled passenger flights 

that are held out to the public by certificated air carriers that
account for at least 1 percent of domestic scheduled passenger revenues.
Certain provisions also apply to voluntary reporting to on-time
performance by carriers.

                 TITLE 14--AERONAUTICS AND SPACE

CHAPTER II–OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
(AVIATION PROCEEDINGS)

PART 234–AIRLINE SERVICE QUALITY PERFORMANCE REPORTS–Table of Contents

Sec. 234.10 Voluntary disclosure of on-time performance codes.

(a) Any air carrier may determine, in accordance with the provisions 

of Sec. 234.8 of this part, the on-time performance codes for the
flights for which it voluntarily provides flight information to the
Department pursuant to Sec. 234.7 of this part.
(b) A carrier may supply these additional on-time performance codes
to system vendors at the same time and in the same manner as the
required disclosures are made to system vendors, provided that voluntary
disclosures must continue for a period of not less than 12 consecutive
months, and must be supplied either
(1) For each of the carrier’s reportable flights and each of its
single plane one-stop or multi-stop flights, or portions thereof, that
it holds out to the public through a CRS, the last segment of which is a
reportable flight or
(2) For each of the carrier’s domestic flights.

Allegiant has scheduled service but it doesn’t equal at least 1% of the domestic traffic.

How big is 1% and how can they there?? just wondering

According to the BTS, there was 495.9 million domestic passengers carried on scheduled services for the 9 months ending September 2007. One percent of 495.9 million is 4,959,000.

The top 10 carriers for domestic passengers for January to September 2007 are
Southwest - 77.035 million passengers
American - 57.714 million passengers
Delta - 46.628 million passengers
United - 43.234 million passengers
Northwest - 33.375 million passengers
Continental - 27.966 million passengers
US Airways - 24.959 million passengers
AirTran - 17.778 million passengers
Sky West - 15.843 million passengers
JetBlue - 15.561 million passengers

These 10 airlines had a total of 360.093 million passengers (73% of the total carried).

Does Allegiant interline baggage? or have any code share partnerships?

No. And they do not allow “connections” at any of their “hubs” either. Everything is and everwhere is a destination for them.

I am flying the inagural Owensboro, KY-Orlando flight on Feb. 18th. Both my wife and I are flying down from OWB to MCO and then coming back on the inagural return on the 21st!

Say Hi to Mickey for us! :smiley:

That’s how I read their contract.

They are flying out of Dayton tomorrow.

Do you see this on their website?

I will not fly on Allegiant nor any other airline that charges you to book a flight with them. Yes, I know I could go to the airport but then that’s inconvenient for me.

A convenience fee of $13.50 per passenger will apply when booked on allegiantair.com. A convenience fee of $13.50 per passenger, plus $10.00 per segment, will apply when purchased through Allegiant Air call center. Purchases made at any Allegiant Air Airport Ticket Office will not incur a convenience or call-center fee.

You may be able to book multi-leg flights through the reservations telephone but you can’t do it online. That’s real convenient, isn’t it?

I really hate convenience fees. It’s kinda like when I go to Cincinnati Reds’ games, the convience fee is almost as much as a bleacher seat (then again, a beer is more expensive than a bleacher).

Even if it’s something I would really like to see, if the only way I can get tickets to something is to pay a convenience fee, I will not go, plain and simple.

As long as people (sheeple) put up with so-called convenience fees they will remain. The worse has to be Ticketmaster. Among the fees they have, at least for one venue, is a $2 fee for printing (i.e. using my own printer, ink, paper) yet they charge nothing to have the same tickets mailed!
