Allegiant Travel Company is detailing governance and integration plans for its pending acquisition of Sun Country Airlines. Upon closing, Allegiant’s board will expand from eight to eleven members, adding Sun Country CEO Jude Bricker and directors Jennifer Vogel and Thomas Kennedy.
Allegiant has also signed an Advisory Services Agreement under which Mr. Bricker, as an independent contractor, will earn $26,250 per month to support integration, including combining operations under a single FAA operating certificate and helping retain Sun Country’s charter, cargo and other business relationships. The agreement becomes effective only if the mergers close and Bricker joins the Allegiant board.
The companies reiterate that the combination is expected to create a leading leisure-focused U.S. airline, with more than 650 routes and expanded access to 18 international destinations, while continuing to operate separately until a single operating certificate is obtained.
Allegiant Travel Company reports that the U.S. Department of Transportation has granted an interim exemption allowing Allegiant and Sun Country to operate as separate airlines under common ownership after closing Allegiant’s proposed acquisition of Sun Country.
The exemption satisfies the last remaining regulatory approval-related condition to closing. Special shareholder meetings for both Allegiant and Sun Country are set for May 8, 2026, and, if remaining customary conditions are met, the companies expect the transaction to close as early as May 13, 2026.

Allegiant Travel Company proposes to acquire Sun Country Airlines Holdings, Inc. through two sequential mergers. Under the agreement, each share of Sun Country common stock will be converted into 0.1557 shares of Allegiant common stock plus $4.10 cash. Based on shares and awards outstanding as of March 26, 2026, former Sun Country equityholders are expected to hold approximately 33% of Allegiant on a fully diluted basis after closing. The implied merger consideration was $18.89 per Sun Country share based on Allegiant’s January 9, 2026 close and $17.17 based on Allegiant’s March 26, 2026 close. The transactions require stockholder approvals, HSR clearance and customary regulatory consents and are conditioned on the satisfaction of the merger agreement terms.
