Spirit Airlines will add seven new destinations from Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) this spring.

On Tuesday, the budget-friendly carrier announced it will introduce nonstop service to New Orleans (MSY) on February 16, 2022, followed by service to Aguadilla, Puerto Rico (BQN) starting on April 20, 2022. New service to Nashville (BNA) and Houston (IAH) will begin on May 11, 2022, followed by service to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic (PUJ), Montego Bay, Jamaica (MBJ) and Oakland (OAK) starting on May 18, 2022.

The new flights to New Orleans, Nashville, Houston and Oakland will operate daily while flights to Aguadilla and Punta Cana will take place four times per week. Spirit will operate three flights per week to Montego Bay.

“This is wonderful news for PHL, our passengers and our region,” PHL CEO Chellie Cameron said in a statement. “In addition to offering more options to popular vacation destinations, Spirit will be the only airline at PHL serving Oakland and Aguadilla nonstop. This is especially important for our passengers wanting to visit friends and relatives.”

“Philadelphia has been a great partner of Spirit Airlines for a long time, and we’re thankful to the airport team for enabling this opportunity to add many more popular, nonstop destinations for our Guests,” added Matt Klein, Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer for Spirit. “This expansion is particularly exciting because of the variety of destinations stretching from the Pacific Coast to popular spots in the Southern U.S., and three new options for Caribbean getaways.”

With the latest expansion, Spirit will serve 20 destinations in the U.S. and the Caribbean from PHL.
