Allegiant offers low-priced fares and vacation deals and will provide nonstop service from San Antonio to three destinations: Las Vegas, Fort Lauderdale and Orlando-Sanford.

San Antonio Mayor Ivy Taylor said more nonstop flights into San Antonio will help the city attract more business.



"That's been a little bit of a barrier for us," she said. "This is a great move forward today for us to add to our roster of nonstop direct flights."

Flights to Fort Lauderdale and Orlando will start Nov. 5 and flights to Las Vegas will start Nov. 6 for as low as $49 one way.
