Allegiant today celebrates 10 years of successful service in Owensboro with the expansion of summer service to Orlando / Sanford. The airline will increase service from Owensboro-Daviess County Regional Airport (OWB) to Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB) to three times weekly during the months of June and July to meet summer travel demand to the Sunshine State.
“We’re thrilled to celebrate this terrific milestone with this expansion of service in Owensboro,” said Drew Wells, Allegiant vice president of planning and revenue. “Since 2009, Allegiant has offered affordable flights from Owensboro, and we could not be more appreciative of the support we’ve received from the community and airport.”
Allegiant began service from OWB on Feb. 19, 2009 and currently offers year-round service to Orlando / Sanford. Since 2009, more than 330,000 Allegiant customers have traveled through OWB on nonstop, ultra-low-cost flights.
“We congratulate Allegiant Airlines and the Owensboro-Daviess County Regional Airport on 10 years of successful partnership and counting,” said Governor Matt Bevin. “Kentucky’s airports are vital infrastructure assets, supporting business/industry development and tourism, as well as military, law enforcement and emergency medical services. Our airports facilitate key connections between the Commonwealth and the world, and partners like Allegiant significantly enhance the quality of life for citizens of the regions they serve.”
