Spirit Airlines Adding More Nonstop Flights to San Juan, Puerto Rico

It’s been a big month for Puerto Rico’s Luis Munoz Marin International Airport.

First, ultra-low-cost carrier Frontier Airlines announced plans to add seven new routes from the US mainland to Puerto Rico.

And now another airline is at it, with Spirit Airlines’ plan to launch five new nonstop routes to Puerto Rico this spring.

On May 5, Spirit will kick off new nonstop service from Atlanta, Hartford, Dallas-Fort Worth, Detroit and Chicago-O’Hare to San Juan. (The new Hartford service is particularly notable, joining Spirit’s recently-launched flights to Montego Bay as the only nonstop flights between Hartford and the Caribbean).

All of the new routes will be operating with daily service, with the exception of Hartford-San Juan, which will run three flights per week.

Spirit is also expanding on a number of other routes to Puerto Rico.
