Will the Savannah airport get a new discount carrier? Answer: Try again later

Allegiant flew out in July 2011.

In 2011 both Allegiant and Vision Airlines announced their departure from the Savannah-Hilton Head International Airport, and since then pocketbooks across the region have waited new of another discounter to come. 

To help ease the pain, airport leaders held an informational meeting on Thursday and the word is: maybe Allegiant will come back if better deals can be struck, fingers are still crossed for JetBlue next year, and Southwest is perhaps someday.

Ouch.
