Spirit Airlines celebrates 20 years of Cancun flights

Cancun, Q.R. — Spirit Airlines is celebrating two decades of flying travelers between Cancun International Airport and the United States. The airline is commemorating the milestone by giving Guests More Go with limited-time anniversary fares on flights to Cancun for a tropical vacation starting February 7.

“For 20 years, we’ve been pleased to offer our Guests affordable, nonstop service to Cancun, making the popular beach destination more accessible and affordable with the opportunity to save on airfare while enjoying more of Cancun’s tourist attractions,” said John Kirby, Vice President of Network Planning at Spirit Airlines.

“We’re grateful to Cancun International Airport and our Guests in Southeast Mexico for embracing our business model and trusting us with their travels for the past two decades.”

Spirit passengers are being offered the celebratory flight prices to Cancun until March 6, 2024. Spirit loyalty program passengers are also being offered bonus points on flights to and from Cancun.

Additionally, the Spirit Charitable Foundation commemorated the anniversary with a donation of $20,000 to Keeping Kids in School in Playa Del Carmen. The sizable donation will help remove the financial barriers that prevent many children in Mexico from gaining access to an education.

Spirit currently offers nonstop service from Cancun to nine cities in the United States: Baltimore (BWI), Chicago (ORD), Dallas (DFW), Detroit (DTW), Fort Lauderdale (FLL), Houston (IAH), Orlando (MCO), New Orleans (MSY) and Philadelphia (PHL).

The carrier has further invested in Southeast Mexico through Spirit Vacations, which allows travelers to bundle and save with vacation packages on Cancun hotels, resorts and rental cars.

Spirit will further grow its Mexico service this spring with nonstop service from Tulum (TQO) to Fort Lauderdale (FLL) and Orlando (MCO) launching March 28.

It is the only ultra-low-cost carrier to announce service to TQO from the U.S., and the only airline offering nonstop flights from FLL and MCO.
