Inaugural Myrtle Beach flight departs Vienna

VIENNA

The first flight from the Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport to Myrtle Beach, S.C., on Allegiant Air departed Thursday afternoon.

Allegiant announced in February that it was adding Myrtle Beach flights to the Youngstown lineup.

The flights leave the local airport at 2:05 p.m. Thursdays and Sundays and arrive at 3:45 p.m. Return flights are available Thursdays and Sundays between 2:45 p.m. and 4:25 p.m.

The company is expanding offerings because of the good response from local customers to the flights it has offered between Vienna and the Sanford International Airport since May 2006, said Allegiant spokesman John Fenyes said.
