PHOENIX – Travelers between the Phoenix area and southwest Utah are getting a new flight option thanks to Allegiant Air.
The low-cost carrier announced Tuesday it would begin seasonal service between Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport and St. George Regional Airport later this year.
The twice-weekly flights will begin on Nov. 9 and can be booked through the airline’s website.
Allegiant scheduled the flights, which take a little over an hour, for Fridays and Mondays through April.
