allegiant air

[Big Empty]

I've never flown. Always had a fear of flying but I finally booked a flight to Vegas. Turns out that the reason my flight was so cheap is that this airline uses old air buses that have been around for 30 years and were previously retired. This airline is more than 4x more likely to have mechanical failure than Delta is what i've read. Any of you even flown with this airline? Considering canceling this trip and taking a 350.00 hit.

Just remember that all the “flying is statistically the safest method of travel” talk is bull , it’s actually more dangerous than driving.

Just being in Vegas is dangerous. How you get there is beside the point.

Yeah. If you have a catastrophic mechanical failure in a car, you'll be OK. But not in a plane. Have those inflatable seats ever saved anyone? Plus the people that work on the planes are educated by the same people that put together the circus rides

Oh no, so your chances of a plane crash are 1 in 300,000 instead of 1 in 1.2 million. Cancel your plans now.
