A Las Vegas-based airline has announced a new first-class offering and complimentary beverage service.
Allegiant Air announced it will be adding a new first-class cabin starting in spring 2027 and will be making drinks free starting Aug. 1.
First up, starting Saturday, the airline will offer free beverage options during in-flight service, including sodas, juice and water.
Then, starting in spring 2027, the airline will offer a new seating class, Allegiant First.
The first-class offering is part of the company’s long-term strategy to “modernize customer experience while expanding ancillary and premium travel offerings for leisure-focused travelers.”
The seating class will be composed of eight seats, configured two by two at the front of the aircraft, with more legroom and a 37-inch pitch, a five-inch recline, calf rests and adjustable headrests, as well as “enhanced amenities and upgraded service elements,” according to a news release.
Allegiant First customers will also get priority access to check in and boarding flights, with the fare including one personal item, one carry-on bag and one checked bag up to 70 pounds.
According to a news release, Allegiant First will be phased in on select aircraft starting in 2027, with seats expected to go on sale in mid-August. The new product will “complement – not replace” Allegiant Extra, according to the news release, which offers seven inches of extra legroom, priority status and reserved bin space.
