Thisorder concerns violations by Allegiant Air, LLC, of requirements relating to aircraft cabin temperatures and other assurances contained in its tarmac delay contingency plan. Allegiant did not provide passengers a comfortable cabin temperature on several delayed flights at Las Vegas McCarran International Airport and certain other U.S. airports between June and September of 2016 and 2017. In one of these instances, Allegiant did not provide food and water to passengers in a timely manner or make certain announcements as required. This order directs Allegiant to cease and desist from future similar violations of 49 U.S.C. 42301, 49 U.S.C. 41712 and 14 CFR Part 259, and assesses the carrier $225,000 in civil penalties.

Ready to join an amazing team of 1,000+ pilots and bring your passion for flying to the Allegiant team? As an Employer of Choice, we want to be transparent with our requirements and interview process. After applying, these are the next steps:


Federal guidelines require service dogs, including psychiatric service dogs, to be allowed in the cabin of all commercial flights. Allegiant is compliant with this regulation. However, under a Department of Transportation rule change that took effect last year, the Allegiant ESA policy has been revised. Emotional support animals are now considered pets, meaning that you can still take them on the plane with you but you have to abide by the Allegiant pet policy.


However, under a Department of Transportation (DOT) rule change that took effect last year, the Allegiant ESA policy has been revised. Emotional support animals are now considered pets, meaning you can still take them on the plane. However, you must abide by the Allegiant pet policy, whether making sure other passengers are still safe on the flight or keeping the pet as a carry-on, such as a small dog.


Before 2021, the Department of Transportation required that Allegiant and all other airlines allow emotional support animals on planes with the necessary documentation. However, the DOT stopped requiring airlines to allow ESAs on flights as of Jan. 11th, 2021. Instead, it gave airlines the choice of whether they would enable ESAs or not. In response, the Allegiant emotional support animal policy was rescinded, and the airline no longer gives ESAs a status similar to that afforded to service animals.


Instead, if a passenger wishes to travel with an emotional support animal, they must travel as a regular pet, abiding by Allegiant's pet policies and fees. Alternatively, ESA owners may consider having their ESA trained as a psychiatric service dog.


Per federal regulations, airlines are still required to allow psychiatric service dogs to fly in cabins as long as they comply with the Allegiant service dog policy and have the necessary documentation. Most importantly, you must fill out the Department of Transportation form. Still, the documentation includes an official PSD letter from a licensed therapist that you can receive from Pettable.


To be able to have a service dog on a plane, you need to have a qualified disability. People with physical and mental disabilities, including psychiatric, intellectual, or sensory disabilities, are eligible to bring service animals on planes. Your official PSD letter from Pettable can demonstrate to officials that you qualify by virtue of your disability.


However, proving that your Allegiant service dog has received the necessary training is even more important than documenting your disability. To do this, you must fill out the official Service Animal Air Transportation Form provided by the Department of Transportation. The form is short and fairly straightforward; it asks you to attest to the animal's health and that it has received the necessary training. It also asks you to affirm that you understand the regulations you have to follow as the handler of a service dog and that you are responsible for any damage that the animal may cause through misbehavior.


Ideally, you should submit the completed form to the department that handles Allegiant service dog requests no less than 48 hours prior to scheduled departure. If you book the trip within this 48-hour window, you must undergo an animal verification process with an Allegiant representative. This involves presenting the completed form and the animal to the rep. Allegiant recommends that you present your PSD and the form to the agent at least two hours prior to scheduled departure to allow sufficient time to complete the verification process.


Allegiant also has policies in place for service dogs currently in training. For the necessary verification of the supporting documentation to take place, the airline requires at least 72 hours advance notice. Allegiant approves PSDs in training on a case-by-case basis in accordance with its normal animal policies.


To provide you with a letter allowing you to take your Allegiant service dog on the plane, we first need to assess your needs. This is accomplished by responding to a few simple questions on our website; it takes about three minutes to complete. This assessment helps us understand your circumstances and your needs for a psychiatric service dog. It will also tell us whether you need a PSD letter for housing, travel, or a combination.
