Cherry Capital Airport announced Tuesday that new nonstop jet service between Traverse City and Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport (AZA) will launch this fall on Allegiant Air.

Beginning November 13, flights will be offered twice-weekly on a year-round basis. To celebrate the launch, Allegiant is offering introductory one-way tickets for as low as $79 through today (Wednesday) for travel by May 2020.

“We’re very excited to grow again in one of our newest Allegiant cities,” says Drew Wells, Allegiant vice president of planning and revenue. “We’re certain that Traverse City-area travelers will appreciate the opportunity to get away to enjoy all that the Valley of the Sun has to offer.” Cherry Capital Airport Director Kevin Klein says the move “continues our mission to expand access to our northern Michigan residents to travel west to visit family, friends, and do business throughout the country. This also allows our friends from Arizona to enjoy all that northern Michigan has to offer.”

With the addition of the new route, Allegiant will now serve four cities from Cherry Capital Airport. Flight days, times, and fares can be found at Allegiant.com.
