According to John Kirby, Vice President of Network Planning at Spirit Airlines, “Key West is a one-of-a-kind beach destination,” and this new service provides a faster, more convenient, and affordable alternative to the traditional road trip. Additionally, the new route will facilitate single-stop connections via Spirit’s hub in Fort Lauderdale, providing access to key cities such as Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, Houston, New York, Philadelphia, and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This network of connections positions Key West as a new tourist hub with national reach, increasing its visibility among both business and leisure travelers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this addition, Key West becomes Spirit Airlines’ eighth destination in Florida, joining Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Miami, Orlando, Pensacola, Tampa, and West Palm Beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
