Airport partnership to benefit veterans

VIENNA

Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport has announced a new partnership with Allegiant Air for veterans.

The “Allegiant Honors” program will support members and veterans of the U.S. military with free services when they fly with Allegiant.

The services include being allowed three pieces of checked baggage, one carry-on bag, one pet in cabin, courtesy boarding-pass printing at the airport and free seat assignments, pending availability.

Also, active-duty military may board flights with priority boarding at no charge and will not get a change or cancelation fee due to a change in orders.

A complete list of services, as well as eligibility and ID requirements, may be accessed at Allegiant.com/military-discount.

Trump asks Supreme Court to reinstate travel ban

WASHINGTON

The Trump administration is asking the Supreme Court to reinstate its ban on travelers from six mostly Muslim countries.

The Justice Department filing to the high court late Thursday argues that the federal appeals court in Richmond, Va., made several mistakes in ruling against the Trump travel policy. The government says the nation will be safer if the policy is put in place.

Department spokeswoman Sarah Isgur Flores says the ban is lawful.
