COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) -- Spirit announced on Thursday the airline is adding nonstop flights from Columbus to two more popular vacation destinations.
The airline is introducing daily service from John Glenn International Airport to Boston, Massachusetts, and Newark, New Jersey, beginning on May 8. Spirit's new flights will increase the airline's Columbus service to eight nonstop destinations.
The announcement comes after Spirit announced earlier this month the airline is introducing service from Columbus to New York-LaGuardia daily and resuming service to Myrtle Beach four times a week, also beginning on May 8.
"Our new service to these two popular vacation destinations provides convenient, affordable options to reach Myrtle Beach's relaxing coastline and New York City's stunning skyline," said John Kirby, Vice President of Network Planning at Spirit Airlines, at the time of the announcement. "We're happy to add these new high-value flight options for Columbus travelers."
Spirit's existing nonstop service from Columbus includes daily flights to Las Vegas and Los Angeles, and twice daily flights to Fort Lauderdale and Orlando.
