nonstop service from the Akron-Canton Airport (CAK) to Las Vegas
McCarran International Airport (LAS) and Myrtle Beach International

the strip with your best friends or plan a family getaway to South

“We are thrilled to deliver this nonstop service to two of the
country’s most popular summer destinations,” said Mark Kopczak,
Vice President of Network Planning for Spirit Airlines. “These news
flights, combined with our existing service to Fort Lauderdale and
Orlando, give Akron-Canton even more ultra-low cost options for
summer travel.”
“Las Vegas is the most requested leisure travel destination that
we weren’t servicing, so we’re thrilled to add it to our lineup of
nonstop flights aboard Spirit Airlines. In addition, we’re excited
that Spirit began service to Myrtle Beach, a family favorite, as
another daily nonstop destination from CAK,” said Rick McQueen,
President and CEO of Akron-Canton Airport. “We enjoy working with
Spirit to bring new vacation options to our customers at affordable
fares, and look forward to seeing our community take advantage of
these new opportunities.”
“We are delighted that our partners at Spirit Airlines continue
to expand service to Las Vegas with this daily nonstop flight from
Akron-Canton,” said Cathy Tull, Senior Vice President of Marketing
for the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority. “In 2016, Las
Vegas celebrated record visitation of more than 42.9 million
visitors, and every new seat provides opportunity for continued
