(Columbia) Jan. 16, 2007 - Allegiant Air announced Tuesday that it will end its scheduled service between Columbia and Tampa Bay, Fla.

Customers with reservations Feb. 8 and beyond will be rebooked for a departure out of the carrier's closest service city, Greenville-Spartanburg. Customers will also have the option of a full refund.
