 MOLINE, Ill. – Allegiant (NASDAQ: ALGT), today announces low-cost, nonstop travel service between Moline/Quad Cities, Ill., and the Tampa Bay, Fla., area beginning Feb. 18, 2011. The company, known for its exceptional travel deals, is offering its customers fares between the two cities for as low

“We're pleased to announce yet another affordable and convenient way for our customers to get away,” Andrew C. Levy, Allegiant Travel Company President, said. “We are confident the Moline/Quad Cities community will appreciate the value of flying nonstop to the Tampa Bay area and the great deals we
offer on hotels and car rentals.”

“I am thrilled Allegiant is continuing to expand in the Quad Cities by adding nonstop service to the Tampa/St. Petersburg area,” Bruce Carter, Director of Aviation for the Quad City International Airport, said. “The Tampa/St. Pete area has some of the most popular beaches in Florida and will be a great vacation destination. With the addition of these flights, the QCIA will now have 12 nonstop
destinations—more than ever before in the history of the airport.”

The new flights will operate twice weekly between Quad City International Airport (MLI) and St. Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport (PIE), with service Monday and Friday.
