Allegiant Air Group Travel: 10+ Passenger Rules, Rates and Booking Guide
Planning a trip for a family, school group, sports team, business, wedding party or other organization can be more complicated than booking for one or two travelers. Allegiant has specific rules for group reservations that depend on the number of passengers and the type of travel you need.
Allegiant allows up to nine passengers on a single itinerary. For groups of 10 or more passengers, multiple reservations are required. Allegiant also states that it offers a guaranteed group rate for 10 or more passengers traveling on its regularly scheduled routes. Larger groups that want to charter an entire aircraft have a separate charter option, which requires a minimum of 40 passengers.
This guide explains Allegiant Air group travel, group rates, booking requirements, seat and baggage considerations, and the difference between group travel and charter service.
What Is Allegiant Air Group Travel?
Allegiant Air group travel is designed for travelers who need to arrange transportation for a larger number of people traveling on the same or related itinerary.
Allegiant's current reservation information states that up to nine passengers can be booked on one itinerary. When a group has 10 or more passengers, Allegiant requires multiple reservations.
For groups of 10 or more passengers traveling on regularly scheduled Allegiant routes, the airline states that a guaranteed group rate is available through its group request process.
Group travel may be relevant for:
- Family and extended-family trips
- Wedding and event groups
- School and educational trips
- Sports teams
- Corporate or business travel
- Community organizations
- Performance groups
- Vacation groups
The exact booking arrangements depend on the number of travelers, itinerary, travel dates and availability.
How Many Passengers Can I Book on Allegiant?
The number of passengers in your party affects how the reservation must be arranged.
| Group size | Allegiant booking arrangement |
|---|---|
| 1–9 passengers | Can be booked on a single itinerary |
| 10+ passengers | Multiple reservations are required |
| 10+ passengers on scheduled routes | Allegiant offers a guaranteed group rate |
| 40+ passengers | May qualify for Allegiant charter service |
A group of 10 or more should therefore not be treated as one ordinary online reservation. Allegiant's Contract of Carriage also states that groups of 10 or more must be booked on multiple reservations.
Does Allegiant Offer a Group Rate for 10 or More Passengers?
Yes. Allegiant's current charter and group information states that the airline offers a guaranteed group rate for 10+ passengers on regularly scheduled routes.
This should not be described simply as a standard “discount.” The applicable group rate is a separate group-travel pricing arrangement, and travelers should request a quote for their specific itinerary.
The quote can depend on information such as:
- Number of passengers
- Origin city
- Destination city
- Travel date
- Return date, if applicable
- Group requirements
- Availability
- Additional travel details
Because fares and availability can change, travelers should review the actual group quote rather than assume that a particular discount percentage will apply.
How Do I Request Allegiant Group Travel?
The group request process starts with collecting the basic details of the trip.
Step 1: Determine the Number of Travelers
First, confirm approximately how many passengers will travel.
This is important because Allegiant treats groups of 10 or more differently from smaller reservations.
Step 2: Choose the Route and Travel Dates
Prepare the:
- Originating city
- Destination city
- Departure date
- Return date, if applicable
Allegiant's group request form asks for these details when requesting group travel information.
Step 3: Prepare Contact Information
A group representative should have the required contact information available, including the representative's name and contact details.
Organizations may also need to provide company, agency or other group information.
Step 4: Submit the Group Request
For groups of 10 or more, submit the required group travel information through Allegiant's official group request process.
Step 5: Review the Group Rate
After submitting the request, review the group pricing and itinerary information provided by Allegiant.
Check the:
- Number of passengers
- Travel dates
- Route
- Applicable group rate
- Additional requirements
- Baggage or other requested services
Step 6: Confirm the Reservations
Once the group travel arrangements are confirmed, make sure every traveler understands the applicable itinerary and reservation details.
Because groups of 10 or more require multiple reservations, keeping passenger information organized is especially important.
What Information Is Needed for an Allegiant Group Travel Request?
Allegiant's group request process asks for basic information about the proposed trip.
| Information | What to provide |
|---|---|
| Number of passengers | Estimated group size |
| Origin | Departure city and state |
| Destination | Arrival city and state |
| Travel date | Planned departure date |
| Return date | If the trip is round trip |
| Contact | Group representative's information |
| Organization | Company, agency or group name when applicable |
| Additional details | Baggage, catering or other relevant requirements |
Providing accurate information can make it easier to evaluate the appropriate group travel arrangement.
What Is the Difference Between Allegiant Group Travel and Charter Travel?
Allegiant group travel and charter travel are not the same service.
Group travel is for 10 or more passengers traveling on a regularly scheduled Allegiant route. Allegiant states that a guaranteed group rate is available for these groups.
Charter travel involves leasing the entire aircraft. Allegiant currently states that charter service requires a minimum of 40 passengers.
| Feature | Group Travel | Charter Travel |
|---|---|---|
| Passenger requirement | 10+ passengers | 40+ passengers minimum |
| Aircraft | Regularly scheduled Allegiant flight | Entire aircraft |
| Pricing | Guaranteed group rate stated by Allegiant | Charter rate based on scheduling and availability |
| Route | Regular scheduled route | Charter arrangement |
| Departure airport/time | Based on scheduled service | Charter can provide more flexibility |
| Best suited for | Larger groups using scheduled flights | Groups needing an entire aircraft |
For most groups traveling on an existing Allegiant route, the group-travel option is different from chartering an aircraft.
Can Groups Sit Together on Allegiant?
Travelers who want to sit together should pay attention to Allegiant's seat-assignment rules.
Allegiant states that passengers can select seats for a fee when making a reservation. If a passenger does not purchase a seat assignment, the system assigns a seat during check-in.
Therefore, travelers should not assume that everyone in a large group will automatically be seated together.
If sitting together is important, the group should review seat options when making or managing the reservations.
Allegiant allows passengers to manage seat selections through Manage Travel.
What Baggage Rules Apply to Allegiant Group Travel?
Group travel does not mean that baggage is automatically free for everyone.
According to Allegiant's current baggage information:
- Each passenger may bring one personal item at no charge.
- The personal item must fit underneath the seat.
- A carry-on bag can be purchased separately.
- Checked bags can be purchased separately.
- Up to four checked bags may be pre-purchased per passenger.
- A standard checked bag can weigh up to 50 pounds.
- Oversize, overweight and excess baggage may involve additional charges.
Allegiant also states that baggage fees at the airport are higher than advance purchase prices in applicable situations.
For a group, it is useful to determine baggage requirements before travel so that each passenger understands what is included and what may cost extra.
Can I Add Seats or Bags After Booking?
Allegiant states that passengers can add seats or bags to an existing reservation through Manage Travel or the Allegiant mobile app.
Advance check-in can also provide options for managing seats and baggage.
For a large group with multiple reservations, each reservation should be checked separately to make sure the required services have been added.
What Should Groups Check Before Travel?
Before the trip, the group representative should review the reservation information for every traveler.
Important checks include:
- Passenger names
- Travel dates
- Origin and destination
- Confirmation numbers
- Seat selections
- Baggage selections
- Check-in requirements
- Airport arrival time
- Any applicable fare conditions
Allegiant Airlines recommends that passengers plan to arrive at the airport at least two hours before scheduled departure. Its current FAQ states that online and mobile check-in is available beginning 24 hours before departure and closes 45 minutes before departure.
Passengers should also review their individual itinerary because multiple reservations may be involved in a group trip.
Can Allegiant Group Reservations Be Changed?
Changes depend on the specific reservation and applicable Allegiant terms.
Allegiant's reservation information states that qualifying changes can involve applicable fees, fare differences and other conditions. Trip Flex can also affect the change rules for eligible reservations.
Because a group of 10 or more is handled through multiple reservations, travelers should review the applicable terms before changing dates, names, seats or other reservation details.
Do not assume that a change to one reservation automatically changes every reservation in the group.
How Can Groups Organize Their Allegiant Trip?
A simple checklist can help prevent problems.
Before requesting group travel
- Confirm the number of travelers.
- Select preferred travel dates.
- Identify the origin and destination.
- Estimate baggage requirements.
- Decide whether travelers need seats together.
- Assign one group representative.
After receiving the group information
- Review the quoted rate.
- Confirm the travel dates.
- Check the route.
- Review baggage and seat requirements.
- Confirm how multiple reservations will be handled.
- Keep confirmation information organized.
Before departure

- Confirm seats and bags.
- Complete check-in within the applicable time window.

- Allow enough time for airport security and boarding.
Is Allegiant Group Travel Available for Schools, Sports Teams and Businesses?
Group travel may be suitable for different types of organizations and events, including school groups, sports teams, businesses, families and other organizations.
However, the booking arrangement should be based on the actual number of passengers and the itinerary rather than the type of organization alone.
Groups of 10 or more should use Allegiant's group-rate/request process rather than assuming that a normal single reservation can accommodate everyone.
