Scheduled flight from Sioux Falls (KFSD) to LAX (KLAX) made an emergency landing in Las Vegas due to a sensor getting to hot and a burning plastic smell in the cabin. Any audio of this event??

Yes, sorry. will someone move this to the "listener" Area then please.

 Also if I had the audio I would have posted it here. so I really don't need to learn how to cut audio. But thanks anyways :)

Allegiant Air? Are they a budget outfit? Scheduled or contract?

Allegiant is a scheduled public carrier.  They primarily run from smaller airports to leisure destinations such as LAX, LAS, PHX, MCO.  They pride themselves in low-low fares, so that means high-high fees.  Fees for booking online, over the phone. seat assignment fee, priority boarding fee, and of course, luggage fees.
