Allegiant Airlines will start Peoria-to-Nashville flights starting June 4. The flights will be offered on Thursdays and Sundays through November. 

“We have so many companies in Peoria and our surrounding communities that do business around the world. Being able to offer new opportunities is important to business development and our local economy.” said Karen Jensen, the chair of the Metropolitan Airport Authority of Peoria and CEO of Farnsworth Group.

One-way fares will start at $44. 

This is the seventh Allegiant flight added to Peoria.
