Delta will finally be adding a long-awaited second destination to LIT, however it will not be a Western gateway as had been speculated. LIT will see daily flights aboard a Delta Connection E-175 aircraft to New York-LaGuardia beginning in May of this year. In the span of only a few months, LIT has gone from zero daily flights to New York to two on two airlines. An interesting development to say the least.

Additionally, Allegiant is returning seasonal service to Los Angeles (LAX), Destin-Ft. Walton Beach (VPS), and St. Petersburg-Clearwater (PIE) beginning in late May and early June. No information regarding aircraft type or daily frequency, but based on Allegiant's business model and patterns at LIT, these returning routes will likely be two or three flights per week on A319 aircraft. Although only seasonal, Allegiant had indicated in the past that these three routes formerly served at LIT would not be reinstated after their last seasonal round had ended. This is a nice change of heart from Allegiant.

If only Delta would add LAX or SLC! We desperately need a western gateway.

Exactly.  SO very odd...
