Allegiant Air

Most podunk small airports/airlines bite. C'mon you know it's true. In fact the first time I flew this airline I thought just that - aww cute little rinky dink airline that kinda sucks.

However, I recently took a trip over the holidays on the same airline, and although there are things that I find ridiculous about them:
* You have to to check in luggage
* They let pets come as carry on's - what the?
* You have to pay for a seat assignment
* You have to pay for onboard snacks
* If you aren't there 45 minutes early you may loose your seat

Lame, I know. But given the price - $24 for a one way ticket (once you take off the additional fees for above mentioned items) not bad, stop at Walgreens for some snacks on the way and buy a water after security and there you go - a cheap trip. Over all I'd give them a 6, n ot bad - they're giving Southwest a run for their money. Oh and that 'rinky dink' airport - super cute and all sorts of new! So over all, not bad fellas, not bad!
