Dollywood and Allegiant teamed up for a first-of-its-kind experience for Orlando travelers, flying fans from Florida to the Great Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee. The special fan flights, numbered #925 and #2925 in a nod to one of Dolly Parton’s most iconic songs, took off from Orlando Sanford International Airport on Friday, Nov. 6. They landed at McGhee Tyson Airport in Tennessee.
Passengers on both flights enjoyed Dollywood-themed experiences, including gate celebrations, live entertainment, an in-flight trivia contest and merchandise. The airline and the park partnered to give travelers a chance to disconnect from everyday distractions and reconnect with each other amid the natural beauty of the Smokies.
On Nov. 7, passengers enjoyed special experiences just for them at Dollywood in Pigeon Forge. Those included exclusive ride times on several rides, among them the park’s newest addition, NightFlight Expedition.
The travelers also celebrated opening weekend for Dollywood’s Smoky Mountain Christmas presented by Humana. According to the park, the event is the 15-time and only winner of the Golden Ticket Award for Best Theme Park Christmas Event.
The flights were announced in February. Flight #925 quickly became one of the fastest-selling flights in Allegiant’s history.
