Allegiant Air has been canceling flights in Florida today due to several disruptive factors impacting the region’s air travel. Here are the primary reasons:
1. Hurricane Threats
With Hurricane Milton recently affecting parts of Florida, many flights are being canceled or rescheduled. Airports like Orlando International and Tampa International, among others, have limited or suspended operations until conditions are safe. Hurricane Milton’s presence has caused widespread cancellations to ensure passenger safety and to prepare facilities for potential impacts.
2. Technical Outages
Allegiant has also faced technical challenges in recent months, with third-party system outages affecting flight schedules. These system issues can disrupt check-in, boarding, and flight departure systems, which sometimes leads to cancellations. Though Allegiant works to resolve these issues quickly, they can cause temporary disruptions in service.
3. Weather-Related Infrastructure Limitations
Apart from hurricane threats, Florida’s airports experience delays and closures due to storms, which can lead to ongoing flight disruptions. Allegiant often cancels flights if storm conditions are predicted to worsen, impacting nearby airports or creating turbulence risks.
If your flight has been canceled, you can reach out to Allegiant’s customer service for rebooking options, and consider checking their travel alerts page for further updates.
