Spirit Airlines will launch four new spring routes from Tampa International Airport, hoping to meet strong passenger demand for vacation travel.
The low-cost carrier will provide nonstop flights to Kansas City, Memphis, Milwaukee, and Nashville with varying frequencies between March and April to coincide with Tampa’s peak travel periods each year.
From March 7 through April 9, Spirit will have a three-weekly schedule to Kansas City and Memphis. The Milwaukee route will offer four weekly flights from March 6 through April 8. Service to Nashville will have four weekly flights from March 8 through April 8.
«Tampa’s many attractions and unique culture make it a fun spring break destination, and Spirit’s new seasonal nonstop flights will make it easier for our Guests from Kansas City, Memphis, Milwaukee, and Nashville to visit Florida’s Gulf Coast. The additional routes also offer our Tampa guests an affordable and convenient way to explore four new destinations this spring,» said John Kirby, Spirit Airlines Vice President of Network Planning.
The addition of these new routes solidifies the growth in demand for travel to the Tampa Bay area. During spring break, Tampa Airport is looking for more visitors seeking sun, beaches, and other entertainment options.
«Airlines are seeing strong demand for travel to Tampa Bay during peak season. Spirit’s additional services are a key indicator of our region’s tremendous popularity for visitors from around the world» said Alex Heiter, TPA’s Director of Air Service Development.
