Spirit Airlines Coasts into the Florida Keys with Launch of Key West Service

Celebrates new service with up to 1,500 Free Spirit^® bonus points promotion for travelers

DANIA BEACH, Fla., Nov. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Sunshine State is getting even brighter with Spirit Airlines' iconic yellow planes officially landing today at the Southernmost Point. The Florida-based carrier launched the only nonstop service between Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) and Key West International Airport (EYW), offering a quick, easy alternative to driving for South Floridians.

"Key West lives up to its reputation as an island paradise, and now Fort Lauderdale travelers can get to their Florida Keys vacation in under an hour," said Andrea Lusso, Vice President of Network Planning at Spirit Airlines. "As South Florida's hometown airline, we're proud to expand our Florida footprint and also introduce a convenient and affordable way for Guests across our network to reach the Southernmost Point."

The flights will operate up to three times weekly on Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays and will increase to daily service on Dec. 18, 2025, for the holiday season. The new service makes it easier for Spirit Guests to explore Key West's Duval Street, enjoy world-class water excursions and immerse themselves in the Florida Keys' laid-back lifestyle.

"Spirit Airlines beginning service at Key West International Airport is a win for tourism and the Florida Keys," said Richard Strickland, Executive Director of Airports. "This convenient new route will connect the Keys to dozens of destinations across Spirit's network, further broadening our global reach."

The addition of Key West to Spirit's route map marks the airline's eighth destination in Florida alongside Fort Lauderdale (FLL), Fort Myers (RSW), Miami (MIA), Orlando (MCO), Pensacola (PNS), Tampa (TPA) and West Palm Beach (PBI). Plus, Guests across the airline's network can enjoy easy one-stop connections from major metros like Atlanta (ATL), Boston (BOS), Chicago (ORD), Detroit (DTW), Houston (IAH), Newark (EWR), New York-LaGuardia (LGA), Philadelphia (PHL) and more to the Florida Keys.
