Platinum Card® from American Express
Apply Now(at Amex's secure site)Spirit Airlines, the ultra-low-cost carrier known for a no-frills experience is launching several new routes from Boston (BOS) as well as expanding service on several existing routes to daily or year-round. This will nearly double the year-round flights Spirit offers out of New England’s largest city.
Let’s take a look at all the details!
Spirit Airlines‘ expansion out of Boston will include 2 types of offerings:
Here are the routes:
Destination: | Flights Available: | Launch Date: |
Atlanta (ATL) | Daily | Existing; increasing frequency |
Charlotte (CLT) | Daily | June 7, 2023 |
Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) | Daily | June 7, 2023 |
Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood (FLL) | Daily | Existing; increasing frequency |
Fort Myers (RSW) | Daily, Summer Seasonal | Existing; increasing frequency |
Houston (IAH) | Daily | August 9, 2023 |
Las Vegas (LAS) | Daily | Existing; increasing frequency |
Los Angeles (LAX) | Daily | July 5, 2023 |
Miami (MIA) | Daily | Existing; increasing frequency |
Myrtle Beach (MYR) | Daily | Existing; increasing frequency |
Orlando (MCO) | Daily | Existing; increasing frequency |
Phoenix (PHX) | Daily | August 9, 2023 |
San Juan (SJU) | Daily | Existing; increasing frequency |
Tampa (TPA) | Daily, Summer seasonal | Existing; increasing frequency |
It’s interesting that a number of these routes are in direct competition with other airlines. While there are some routes in this expansion that aren’t offered by other carriers, many will see the low-cost carrier compete against much larger airlines:
While these larger carriers will inevitably not like Spirit offering a similar route, this should be good news for flyers. Since Spirit’s fares are so cheap, it could drive down the cost of these flights on other airlines as well. Not to mention the fact that these frequencies will add additional departures throughout the day which could be beneficial for travelers in terms of timing.
Hot Tip:Many of these flights are over 3 hours, so you might want to consider purchasing Spirit’s Big Front Seat product via a Spirit First, which is a first-class style seat without the “soft” amenities.
These new routes will add more cost-effective options for New England flyers. Most of these flights will compete with other airlines, which should be great for pricing and scheduling, giving flyers more choices from Boston.
