I flew aleegiant into SFB out of harrisburg, PA, in 2019. And i thought everything was fantastic. I knew going in what i was going to expect, so i wasn't like super disappointed in anything.
Thank you for this!!!!! I have been looking for a trip report on the Allegiant Max because I wanted to see what was different. Thanks for the video!!❤❤❤❤

I had no idea allegiant started service with these so seeing this video in my recommended was a surprise. Nice to see that they put actual tray tables onboard. Gonna be flying some Allegiant flights at the end of this month but they're all A319s.
Excellent trip report Emil! I was pleasantly surprised by Allegiant last summer and I’ve got to say, the restaurant to the left of security at SFB is quite good!
Great review and vid. I love flying Allegiant. I will be onboard again soon traveling back to SYR from PIE on their A319. We've purchased exit row and first row seating this time around. Looking forward to it. I'm ready to travel over to Orlando in order to try out Brightline as well. I cannot wait until they are here in the Tampa area!
I'm flying on Allegiant for the first time later this month, and supposedly one of my flights is supposed to be on the new MAX-8-200. Definitely looking forward to it overall, but at 6'2" I'm not excited about enduring the tight legroom for almost 3 hours!
Could be worse, I had the misfortune of sitting in row 31 on a VOI A320neo. Took me all of 2 seconds to nope and go back to my seat at the front (despite being a standard seat it had a bit more legroom)
Flew them on old MD 80/82 before carry on fees and besides being loud it was great. They are always the highest priced ULCC now but still usually better than Frontier or Spirit. I avoid Sanford forvthe food and location alone. And since it lost its priority pass lounge
Only sad thing about Allegiant is that they don't offer no Connection Flight so it's Point A to Point B... and then chance it by buying another ticket from Point B to Point C (if they serve the point C city that you want to go to)
@@athleticguy15 They have Hubs they just don't offer no Connection flights, say you want to go from Stockton to San diego you have to buy 2 ticket, Stockton to Vegas (hub) then Vegas to Diego.. but thats taking a chance to get there on time unless you have a 5-10 hour before your 2nd flight cause they are notorious for delays,
Good report. The legroom is dangerously tight. I know Allegiant is an LCC; however, Congress should legislate that all air carriers have a minimum of 33" seat pitch between each row. That's the only way airlines will respect the flying public.
I don't really understand Allegiant's selection of the MAX200. I mean, you can put 189 seats in any -800/MAX8, and the 200 was intended for (wait for it...) 200 seats. So they added the complexity and weight of the extra door pair, for.......... ONE additional seat. Granted, they can do the extra legroom upcharges up front, but if they really have that much need/demand for ancillary revenue, why not just get a MAX9 and truly go hog wild???
Here’s my theory, Boeing was in a desperate position to get some good PR out of the MAX, while also being desperate to promote the 8200. So they probably offered allegiant an even bigger discount to take the 8200 over the 8.
@@sweetdaddydee1314 Not to mention, the Max jets have been flying billions of miles all over the world during the last five + years, with not a single incident.
@athleticguy15 ok, i wouldn't say not a single incident. That Alaskan max 9 had one of its doors blown off several months ago. But besides the normal(ish) engine issues and any other issue, it's been fine.

I don’t like it. The legroom is so horrible! It’s very bad. They should have more space for everyone, not just 28” inches of legroom. I refuses to fly on an ULCC. I have to stay away from ULCC. I don’t like charge a seat, carryon, personal items, and checked bags. They should be free! People had it right. They want to be free. Not paying for carryons, personal items, seats, checked bags and food and beverages. I’ll never fly on the ULCC.
the MAX is such a lazy design. It looks no different than an NG on the inside. On the outside outside for the wingtips and tailcone if you have an eye for it there is basically no difference. Im an American and I cant deny Airbus is destroying them in terms of innovation.
@@taxiway207 You actually cant. The A320neo looks nothing like A320ceos on the inside. Trying to be Cost effective is what got Boeing into the mess its in now.
@@athleticguy15 yes. I work on them. It’s very obvious which one is a bit more modern. It’s near impossible to tell the difference between the cabin of a 737NG produced 20 years ago compared to Boeings “newest” offering, the MAX. From the PSUs, lavs, overhead bins, overall cabin ambience. To me it’s clear what manufacturer just copies and pastes compared to which one is still trying to innovate/improve the passenger AND crew experience.
first video on youtube of a Allegiant flight on the 737MAX800-200 great catch my friend 👏✈️

Are you doing commercials for salted almonds now??? 😂

Great review. Thanks for reviewing the new high capacity max. Didn’t seem too bad. Happy travels!
Those Blue Diamond low sodium almonds sure do look delicious! I may have to pick up a pack to try lol
Did Blue Diamond almonds sponsor this video? Haha

I believe it is a legal requirement to indicate if a video is sponsored?
I don't know about a legal requirement, but it's unethical not to disclose it.

Finally! Been waiting for this report
Hi nice Allegiant First B737 Max 8
Lmao just had my first interview with Allegiant and then this pops up, maybe it’s a sign
I saw this jet in Springfield, MO (KSGF) back in October! I’ve got a video of it departing and everything! It was awesome! 😎 ✈️
Excellent trip report Emil! I was pleasantly surprised by Allegiant last summer and I’ve got to say, the restaurant to the left of security at SFB is quite good!
Glad you enjoyed those very delicious low sodium lightly salted Blue Diamond almonds. They make for an excellent addition to any flight.

dude...Allegiant has Boeing jets???? Im a happy guy.
Why?
Its their first one
@@DrewsWorld10 no they used to have 57s
@@DrewsWorld10they used to fly 757s like a decade ago
Yea I know that I meant first 737
I think you’re the first on TH-cam to Review this aircraft
Not really. There are some reviews older than this. About 6 days to 1 week old.
I didn't quite catch that, was that lightly salted Blue Diamond Almonds you were eating?
Don’t forget they’re low sodium
Only sad thing about Allegiant is that they don't offer no Connection Flight so it's Point A to Point B... and then chance it by buying another ticket from Point B to Point C (if they serve the point C city that you want to go to)
Most of the smaller cities Allegiant flies to are destination cities, not hub connecting locations.

@@ImionsaeXwb77 No, they don't have hubs, the mostly fly from smaller cities to leisure destinations.

@@ImionsaeXwb77 You obviously don't understand what a hub is. Hubs are for connecting flights, which obviously Allegiant does not have.
Breeze has inseat power, I think they're considered ULCC. side note I'm worried about spirit.
I’m flying Allegiant in week, I wonder if I’ll be on a 737 Max instead of the old A320
Not too many in service yet, but you might luck out.
awesome 🎉
Where were you guys flying out of?💞🇺🇸✝️☮️✈️💞
Flying Allegiant on Fri from FLL > USA (Concord)
What happened to that light aircraft going so fast on a taxiway during the start-up sequence ?
So Spirit Airlines is no longer considered a ULCC?
Man now I really want some lightly salted blue diamond almonds now
Why is a flight between Orlando's 2nd airport and Huntington so full???
lol thats what im saying. i guess allegiant has their route planning nailed down
Allegiant took delivery of brand new A320s in 2015. Sorry to burst your bubble!!!
Sun country is actually the first ULCC to offer in seat power.
I’m surprised the ULCCs aren’t doing much to enhance the experience given their financial performance and increasing competition.
Does Boeing still offer the smaller Sky Bins on the MAX?
Good report. The legroom is dangerously tight. I know Allegiant is an LCC; however, Congress should legislate that all air carriers have a minimum of 33" seat pitch between each row. That's the only way airlines will respect the flying public.

Thank you for the flight but I would not even make from the gate to the taxiway before trying to open the main door to escape.

Special thanks to Donna for making this possible
I bet you Donna doesn't like the low sodium lightly salted blue diamond almonds
A relief no Mcas
Are you sponsored by Blue Diamond Almonds? 🤣🤣
saw this plane at KAVL
So, you're DC's new hero. Hey, Super Eyebrows.
At least they have power ports.
737 max 8 feels like an bus.
11:18 nokia?..
I wonder if Boeing ever considered phasing out the MAX8 in favor of MAX200s with door plugs
How come they have a paper magazine! The saving just on fuel they could make.
Boy the flight crews talk a lot.
They do when the edited video focuses on flight crew announcements.
Hmmm
No seatback screens on a max 8?? Should be normal by now
Allegiant is an ULCC, that would be an extra cost. Their business model is save as much money as possible.
Whether or not there are seatback screens on the Max 8 is totally up to the airline. Obviously, one wouldn't expect them on an ULCC.
What happened to you being cute 🤦♂️
He doesn't look any different. Just didn't have time to do his hair, I guess.
8200. What
Same Max that RyanAir flies, but actually Max8-200
Just a max 8 with the exit options to allow higher capacity vs the Regular 8
“If it’s allegiant Boeing I anit goin”
Id take any other one tho
Ok good. More seats foe the rest of us that aren't pussywhipped into never flying boeing.

Yeah Allegiance got a good deal because the 737 Max is crap
Here we go again.
Ahhhh, another airbus fangirl. Good, dont fly a boeing, thats just more seats for the rest of us that aren't pussywhipped into hating boeing.
They are not bad heck the dc10 md11 was far worse
