Allegiant Airlines Review

 Stardate 02.10.2026

If you read my story involving my super hero guide Crystal who sat next to me the last time I flew, you know the meeting was most likely Divinely inspired. These angels happen to be wearing civilian clothes but that doesn't stop me from discovering who they are. My flight yesterday is one more story to add to my signature collection.

Before I share my review, let me say it first appeared nothing was going to happen. Our seats were like a love seat. Two together. Everyone else on the Boeing jumbo jet had three. The odd layout had to do with the exit row directly behind us. My wife thought we were safe from another conversation like past flights. Then it happened. When we were ready for takeoff, my wife looked to her right and became startled. There was a person next to her in a jump seat facing the opposite direction. It turns out her appearance was certainly not random. 

I studied all the materials in front of me. The wine offering on the front cover got my full attention. When I found out Natasha is our flight attendant, I asked about the wine.

"I've never tried it. I don't drink. But if you do order it, I'd love your feedback. I do know that we replaced it because nobody seemed thrilled with the wine we served before."

Natasha asked me if I'd like to try the wine when she stood next to me with her cart filled with temptations. I chose my favorite, cabernet sauvignon. When I pulled out my credit card to pay, Natasha declined to accept it. She was genuinely interested to get my feedback. Smart flight attendant. Very smart. English happens to be her third language. Excellent hire by Allegiant. Even though Natasha may never try the wine, she is using feedback from passengers to give guidance to future travelers.

Here is my review. A ten. Brilliant marketing. The picture of the wine on the cover of the magazine is professional and inviting. The name is a story all by itself. Altus Sol. It means high sun. More on that in a follow up story. It's rated a 93. That's exceptional according to the experts. That's rare on a menu prepared by an airlines well known for being budget friendly.

Here's the action I took based on a ten for service and a ten for Altus Sol. I decided to apply for their credit card. I hope Dave Ramsey, my favorite financial guru, doesn't hear about this because I happen to talk about him practically every day. The ride got bumpy when I began filling out the application. I prayed it would be legible enough to get me approved because I was picturing myself on future flights sipping Altus Sol. I'm hooked. Thank you, Natasha. You deserve a raise. May you live long and prosper.
