Tracey Payne, CDA Acting Commissioner, commented on Allegiant’s contributions: “I am proud to celebrate Allegiant’s ongoing commitment to Midway over these past five years. Expanded service and destinations from our low-cost carrier partners helps keep Chicagoans connected to a wide range of destinations for business, leisure or anything in between while keeping airfares affordable.”

This summer is expected to be the busiest in history for both O’Hare and Midway airports, with over 17.8 million departing seats scheduled from June through August. Allegiant is one of three ultra-low-cost carriers operating at Midway, contributing to airfares that are 10% below the national average according to the U.S. Department of Transportation’s latest report.

In June 2025, Allegiant plans its largest number of departing seats from Midway within a single month. By July's peak summer schedule, it will serve six nonstop destinations from Midway compared to four when it began operations there in May 2020:

- Asheville, North Carolina (2x weekly)

- Destin, Florida (3x weekly)

- Knoxville, Tennessee (2x weekly)

- Provo, Utah (2x weekly)

- Punta Gorda, Florida (2x weekly)

- Savannah, Georgia (2x weekly)
