Fly Direct to Alabama's Beaches
Planning a beach vacation has never been easier. Our destination now offers direct flights to and from six major US cities through Allegiant Airlines. In just a few short hours, you could be lying on the sand and listening to waves crashing on Alabama’s Beaches.
Beach Days Sooner with Allegiant's Direct Flights
All direct flights are two hours or less and land at Gulf Shores International Airport (GUF), just three miles from the beach. There’s so much you can do with all the time you’ll save! From the airport, guests can call shuttles, taxis, or ride-share services like Lyft or Uber to take them to their accommodation. We suggest arranging transportation in advance to secure a ride. If you prefer to have a vehicle for your entire trip, book a rental car so you can easily get around the destination.
