MANCHESTER, N.H. – The newest addition to Manchester-Boston Regional Airport (MHT) is ready to begin flights to its second set of destinations in its opening set of cities it has connected to Manchester.
Spirit Airlines will begin flights from MHT to Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) in Ft. Myers, Fla. And Tampa International Airport (TPA) on Nov. 17 and 18, respectively. Tampa and Fort Myers will have flights from Manchester three times and four times a week, respectively.
These two routes join daily flights launched earlier this year by Spirit to Fort Lauderdale and Orlando. Spirit has also announced an additional route to Myrtle Beach, SC opening on April 20, 2022.
“It’s exciting to see Spirit expanding to two more Florida destinations from MHT,” said Airport Director Ted Kitchens, A.A.E. “These flights also come just before the busy holiday travel season after a year when many people were unable to visit their loved ones.”
Spirit is also changing the Fort Lauderdale flight from 8:10 a.m. to 6:10 a.m. to allow connecting flights in Fort Lauderdale to the following Caribbean and Latin American cities.
- Armenia, Colombia
- Barranquilla, Colombia
- Bogota, Colombia
- Cali, Colombia
- Cartagena, Colombia
- Cancun, Mexico
- Guatemala City, Guatemala
- Kingston, Jamaica
- Montego Bay, Jamaica
- Medellin, Colombia
- Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
- San Salvador, El Salvador
- Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
- San Jose, Costa Rica
The announcement follows news last week regarding modifications on United flights from Manchester to Newark International Airport (EWR) and Dulles International Airport (IAD) just outside Washington, D.C.
