LAS VEGAS and ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., July 24, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Minor League
Baseball™ (MiLB™) and Allegiant (NASDAQ: ALGT) yesterday formally
initiated their credit card rewards partnership, which was
announced in December at the Baseball Winter Meetings™. The
groundbreaking partnership is the first of its kind between a
sports property and an airline. Expanding on the current
relationship between the two brands, the new promotions offered to
all Allegiant World Mastercard® holders will enhance
fans' connections with their hometown teams in Allegiant markets
across the country.
"The synergy between Allegiant and MiLB is evident, with a
considerable overlap between teams and Allegiant cities. These new
benefits will surely deepen our connection with fans across our
network," said Scott DeAngelo,
Allegiant chief marketing officer.
Cardholders can experience exclusive promotions by simply
showing their Allegiant World Mastercard® at their local
ballparks, in addition to existing rewards earned by making
everyday purchases and by booking travel on Allegiant.com. Some of
the perks fans can receive this year include early access at select
ballparks, opportunities to enter to win monthly promotions, and
much more.
"This new facet of our partnership with Allegiant showcases
MiLB's ability to provide dedicated fans and cardholders with
one-of-a-kind experiences," said David
Wright, chief marketing and commercial officer for Minor
League Baseball. "We continue to be bold in our pursuit of
innovation, and the new features of this program aid our efforts to
do so."
MiLB has a special connection to the communities it calls home,
offering fans the best entertainment value in sports. As the
hometown airline of cities across the country, Allegiant is proud
to be the "Official Airline of Minor League Baseball."
