Allegiant Airlines adds service between Rochester and Florida

Allegiant Airlines is expanding service between the Greater Rochester International Airport and Southwest Florida. 

Monroe County Executive Cheryl Dinolfo says that Allegiant will begin new, twice-weekly, non-stop service from Rochester to Punta Gorda, Florida beginning November 17.

The year-round route will offer approximately 340 additional non-stop seats to the west coast of Florida.

With the addition of the route, Allegiant will operate two, non-stop routes from Rochester.

Allegiant started service in Rochester in 2015 and also offers twice-weekly service to Orlando.
