Sun Country Airlines

Sun Country Airlines (IATA: SY, ICAO: SCX) is a United States-based airline founded in 1982 and headquartered at Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport. The carrier operates an all-economy cabin with a single-aircraft-type fleet, simplifying operations and crew training. In May 2026, Allegiant Travel Company acquired Sun Country Airlines; both carriers continue operating separately while working toward a unified operating certificate.

The airline maintains three main hubs: Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport, Capital Region International Airport, and Cancún International Airport. This geographic spread enables Sun Country to serve leisure travelers and connect North American markets with Mexican and Caribbean destinations efficiently. The carrier serves approximately 140 destinations across the United States, Canada, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean, positioning itself as a leisure-focused network carrier.

Sun Country operates a standardized fleet of Boeing 737 aircraft, enabling consistent maintenance, scheduling, and crew management across its route network. Beyond passenger service, the airline operates cargo flights for Amazon Air, diversifying revenue streams. All seats are economy-class, with two seat options-Best and Standard-allowing passengers to choose their preferred level of comfort and amenities.
