Spirit Airlines Makes Big Debut at MIA
Spirit Airlines has officially arrived at Miami International Airport. The ultra-low-cost carrier headquartered in Miramar, Florida is making a big debut at MIA. Spirit will launch flights to nine destinations and grow to 31 destinations by January.
The service started with its first flight arriving from Atlantic City, N.J. (ACY) and first departure bound for Port-au-Prince, Haiti (PAP). The carrier will serve 20 markets domestically and 11 internationally.
Spirit’s full schedule is large enough to earn the airline a position as MIA’s second largest airline. The carrier is staffing MIA with more than 200 new Spirit Family Members and supporting the expansion with 16 brand new fuel-efficient Airbus A320neo planes being delivered this year. Next year, Spirit plans to accept another 24 new planes into the airline’s Fit Fleet.
