More Caribbean, More Go! Spirit Airlines Celebrates New Service to Cap-Haïtien

MIRAMAR, Fla., April 12, 2018 -- Amazing beaches and amazing people are waiting to greet you as Spirit Airlines (NYSE:SAVE) grows in the Caribbean once again! On April 12, 2018, Spirit will connect Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) to 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 to Norman Manley International Airport (KIN) in Kingston, Jamaica.

These new and expanded services are a growing part of Spirit’s commitment to making air travel more affordable to the Caribbean for years to come.
