Tips for 1 hr Connections
Almost all flights are Allegiant point-to-point routes, so double-check whether your itinerary is actually ticketed as a single connection or two separate bookings.
Security and check-in lines are short outside of the few daily bank departures, but arrive early anyway since staffing is minimal.
There is no dedicated connections desk, so if you have a tight layover ask a gate agent immediately upon arrival for guidance.
The terminal is small with limited food and shops, so don't expect much to do during a long layover.
Because flight banks are infrequent, a missed or delayed connection can mean a wait of several hours for the next available flight.
