The recent merger between Allegiant and Sun Country has raised questions among travelers about what to expect in the coming years. Allegiant's network VP has clarified that fliers will not see combined tickets or shared loyalty perks right away.
For up to two years, travelers will continue to book flights separately with each airline, and the benefits associated with loyalty programs will remain distinct. This means that frequent fliers will need to maintain their loyalty with each airline independently during this transition period.
Additionally, the airlines will not operate under a single fleet immediately. This separation is intended to ensure a smooth integration process while maintaining service levels for customers.
