Spirit Airlines has announced it will again grow in the Caribbean. On April 12, 2018, Spirit started to connect Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) with Cap-Haïtien International Airport (CAP) in Haiti’s second largest city. This new flight marks the second destination for Spirit in Haiti, complementing existing service to Port-au-Prince (PAP).
Additionally, low fare flights to St. Maarten’s Princess Juliana International Airport (SXM) resume on May 5, 2018 as recovery continues and tourism opportunities grow after the impact of last year’s hurricanes. Spirit will also connect South Florida to St. Croix’s Henry E. Rohlsen Airport (STX), Spirit’s second destination in the U.S. Virgin Islands, starting on May 24, 2018.
Spirit’s commitment to expansion in the Caribbean also includes expanded seasonal daily service from Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood to Norman Manley International Airport (KIN) in Kingston, Jamaica.
