Allegiant Air flight overruns runway in Colorado  

 

An Allegiant Air (Las Vegas) flight from Las Vegas overran the runway while landing at the Loveland-Fort Collins Municipal Airport on Sunday afternoon. Flight 464 touched down around 1:45pm local time and ran about ten (10) feet past the end of the runway. “They landed a little bit long and overshot the runway,” said Tye Drage, public information officer for Loveland Fire and Rescue. None of the 156 passengers and crew aboard were injured in the incident. Airline officials reportedly were able to restart the aircraft’s engines and get it back on the runway after the passengers were removed from the aircraft.

I was on this flight, it was ridiculous. We sat on the hot plane for an hour and a half waiting for buses. No apologies, they didn't even offer any of their $2.00 bottled water.
