Allegiant Air is the main airline which is responsible for the airports high domestic flight numbers. The parent company Allegiant Travel based in Las Vegas is now focusing on serving smaller, tourist markets, and planning a profitable strategy. The low-fare air company routinely gives bundle packages with hotel reservations, car hire, and Disney tickets.
However, Orlando Sanford international charters that carry tourists from overseas are struggling due to the ever-rising prices for fuel. Some have permanently gone out of business, while some are now focusing on domestic flights only. As a result the number of flights has declined.
Sanford may this year actually cater for more domestic flight passengers than international flight passengers for the first time in 10 years
