Find a flight with Spirit Airlines

Spirit Airlines is a low cost carrier based in Miami offering flights around the Americas. Today, around half the offered destinations are in the Bahamas, Latin America and the Caribbean. In 1980, Spirit Airlines was formed in Michigan under the name Charter One. For the first 10 years, the company provided charter flights to various vacation and entertainment centers before starting regularly scheduled flight service in 1990. Two years later, the name was changed to the current version and the fleet was updated to include jet aircraft. In 2004, the company largely expanded the flight network of vacation destinations in the Bahamas, Caribbean and surrounding areas. The frequent flyer program Free Spirit enables regular customers to collect points and frequent flyer miles for future bonuses. Today, the airline flies to around 40 destinations including Los Angeles, Washington and New York as well as Central American and Latin American destinations which remain the primary focus. As a cheap airline, customers should be prepared to pay extra for drinks and snacks on board as well as possible luggage charges.
