New Jersey travelers looking to escape winter now have two new nonstop options to Florida. Allegiant Air now offers additional service from Atlantic City International Airport (ACY), with one-way fares as low as $39.

Beginning Feb. 13, the new routes include service to Punta Gorda Airport (PGD) and St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport (PIE). Flights will operate up to twice weekly.

Allegiant launched service out of Atlantic City in December, beginning with routes to Fort Lauderdale and Orlando/Sanford. The introduction of the PIE and PGD routes builds on that momentum and expands Allegiant’s service out of ACY.

“We’re excited to begin offering Atlantic City travelers more nonstop flights to Florida,” said Allegiant Chief Commercial Officer Drew Wells. “This expansion reflects our commitment to delivering travel that’s more accessible, affordable, and enjoyable. Our brand of service and low fares continues to resonate with travelers who are looking to build the vacation of their dreams at unbeatable value.”

Trading coats for sunshine

“With the launch of St. Petersburg and Punta Gorda on Feb. 13, Allegiant is giving South Jersey travelers new ways to trade winter coats for sunshine,” said South Jersey Transportation Authority Executive Director Stephen Dougherty. “These routes make it easier than ever to head to Florida’s Gulf Coast, enjoy beautiful beaches, and catch the Phillies in Clearwater for spring training.

“After the successful start of service to Fort Lauderdale and Sanford, we’re thrilled to see this partnership continue to grow and offer our passengers even more convenient, affordable options to get out of the cold and into the sun.”

Allegiant said promotional $39 fares are limited-time offers. Tickets for both routes must be purchased by Feb. 15, 2026. Travel to Punta Gorda must take place May 8, 2026, and travel to St. Petersburg by May 22, 2026.

Seats are limited and fares are not available on all flights.
