LAS VEGAS, Jan. 10, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Allegiant Travel Company (Nasdaq:ALGT) today reported preliminary passenger traffic results for December 2010.
The company's cost per passenger guidance is slightly higher than previously projected due to having carried fewer passengers than expected as a result of irregular operations caused by the severe weather in late December in addition to unscheduled engine maintenance expenses.
