In light of the recent tragic event in Las Vegas, several airlines are making major moves to help those affected. Allegiant Air, based in Las Vegas, is offering free flights to family members of those who were killed or injured in the shooting. In a Facebook post, the airline said that Las Vegas is Allegiant's hometown and the event left it "heartbroken." They stated that "if you or your family members were affected by what happened . . . we want to help."
Southwest Airlines told POPSUGAR via email on Wednesday that the airline was also providing free flights to family members of victims. It will also help transport bodies of those who were killed.
"Our Southwest hearts are with everyone affected by the tragedy in Las Vegas. We are working closely with authorities to provide support to families affected by this tragedy. Southwest Airlines is offering complimentary air transportation to families who lost loved ones, or have a loved one who is hospitalized. We are also helping transport the victims who tragically lost their lives.
"We are allowing customers traveling to and from Las Vegas from Oct. 2, 2017 through Oct. 6, 2017 to adjust their travel plans without additional costs. Customers may visit Southwest.com to rebook their itineraries or call 1-800-I-FLY-SWA for assistance."
In addition to Southwest, JetBlue, Allegiant, and United were also reportedly waiving travel change fees to accommodate Las Vegas customers. United issued a travel waiver, which says that "the change fee and any difference in fare will be waived for new United flights departing Las Vegas between Oct. 2, 2017, and Oct. 13, 2017, as long as travel is rescheduled in the originally ticketed cabin (any fare class) and between the same cities as originally ticketed."
