  3. Save Time Traveling With Allegiant Flights To Alabama's Beaches

Save Time with Non-Stop Flights

to Gulf Shores & Orange Beach

January 7, 2025

Planning a beach getaway has never been easier. With Allegiant’s nonstop flights to Gulf Shores, you’ll land just 3 miles from white-sand shores and turquoise waters. You can catch a direct flight from several destinations, and all flights are only two hours or less, meaning you’ll have lots of extra time to enjoy your beach vacation.

With the time you save, you can dive right into exploring local attractions, sampling new local restaurants, or simply relaxing on the sand. To put that time into perspective, here’s how you can turn your extra time into stories to share.
