Hello Havana! Spirit Airlines Delivers Ultra-Low Fares to Cuba
December 01 2016 - 3:05PM
Spirit Airlines is bringing its ultra-low fares to Cuba’s famous
capital city. Today, Spirit begins twice-daily nonstop service to
Havana’s José Martí International Airport (HAV) from the Fort
Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL).
“As South Florida’s hometown airline, we recognize the
significance of this new service,” said Bob Fornaro, President and
CEO of Spirit Airlines. “Spirit is proud to be a part of history
today, offering ultra-low fares to Havana and opening a new chapter
of affordable travel to this remarkably unique destination.”
In addition to this new nonstop service, Spirit will provide
connecting service from an additional 20 U.S. cities via Fort
Lauderdale. Havana will become Spirit’s 59th destination and 13th
Caribbean airport. It follows the addition of service at the Newark
Liberty International Airport (EWR) and at the Akron-Canton Airport
(CAK).
Spirit’s new flights to Cuba are available for purchase now.
Tickets will include Cuban government-required health insurance and
applicable taxes. Any customer traveling to Cuba must
meet one of twelve approved travel categories by
the U.S. Department of Treasury. For details regarding
all travel requirements or to find out more about Spirit’s Havana
