Allegiant today announced a first-of-its-kind experience for Orlando travelers ready to visit one of the industry’s leading theme parks.
Flight #925 will take off on Friday November 6th to deliver passengers to Dollywood theme park in the Great Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee.
Travelers who book Allegiant flight #925 from Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB) to McGhee Tyson Airport (TYS) on Friday, Nov. 6, 2026, will enjoy a unique Dollywood-themed experience that includes gate celebrations, live entertainment, an in-flight trivia contest, exclusive merchandise, and themed food and drinks. Passengers who purchase park tickets will enjoy a special experience just for them at Dollywood on Nov. 7, 2026.
“Flight #925 is all about embracing the joy of travel,” said Drew Wells, Allegiant’s Chief Commercial Officer. “Partnering with Dollywood Parks & Resorts allows us to deliver a unique experience that reflects the best of both brands: great value, unforgettable moments, and the chance to create memories from the second you step on board.”
This special experience for customers is a one-day-only event as it stands but there is potential for more opportunities in the future.
A themed flight sounds like a great idea but it would be even cooler if there was themed transport taking people from the airport to the park as there’s a solid 60-minute drive there that could be packed full of fun atop a Dollywood themed bus or similar with transport to the park from the airport already being very difficult for those who don’t drive or don’t have a vehicle.
“We’re honored that Allegiant asked Dollywood Parks & Resorts to partner with them for their first-ever themed flight for fans,” said Eugene Naughton, Dollywood Parks & Resorts President. “Allegiant has long provided travelers in the Orlando area with a convenient, high-value way to visit the Smoky Mountains, one of the nation’s leading family vacation destinations.
“This route to Knoxville’s McGhee Tyson Airport is among Allegiant’s most popular, so creating a Dollywood-themed flight made perfect sense. Guests aboard flight #925 will enjoy a fast—and fun—way to reach the Smokies, where they can experience NightFlight Expedition, our brand-new adventure coaster, along with our award-winning Christmas festival featuring more than 6 million lights. We’re excited to welcome our Orlando-area friends with several exclusive, behind-the-scenes park experiences to add even more memories to their Smoky Mountain vacation.”
After purchasing Dollywood admission tickets, flight #925 passengers will receive complimentary exclusive ride time opportunities, as well as special treats, reserved show seating and more surprises during the park’s Smoky Mountain Christmas presented by Humana, the 15-time and only winner of the Golden Ticket Award for Best Theme Park Christmas Event.
Once their boarding passes are secured, Flight #925 passengers also have an opportunity to purchase a special lodging package at either of Dollywood’s award-winning lodging properties, Dollywood’s DreamMore Resort and Spa or Dollywood’s HeartSong Lodge & Resort. The offer includes up to 25% off each night (Nov. 6 and Nov. 7), a $100 credit for food & beverage or merchandise at the resorts, as well as two Dollywood tickets, complimentary TimeSavers and trolley transportation to the park.
