The carrier will also ramp up competition at Atlantic City International Airport (ACY), where Spirit Airlines has long dominated the airport. Spirit is currently the only carrier offering passenger flights from Atlantic City, though American Airlines offers a "flight-by-bus" connection to its Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) hub.
All four of Allegiant's new routes will go to markets already served by Spirit, though Spirit flies to different airports in three of those.
