Spirit
Airlines has announced two new Caribbean destination nonstop flights from
Fort Lauderdale: Belize City and Grand Cayman.
The carrier will begin service between Philip S.W. Goldson
International Airport (BZE) and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport
(FLL) beginning November 21, 2025, with three flights per week on Monday, Friday
and Saturday.
“With its world-class water excursions and beautiful
landscapes, Belize is an incredible addition to our international service and
growing Fort Lauderdale route map,” said John Kirby, Vice President of
Network Planning at Spirit Airlines.
He added, “We’re looking forward to offering our Belize
guests an elevated travel experience on their journey to the United States and
giving our Fort Lauderdale guests even more destinations to explore as we
double down on our FLL service.”
“We are excited to welcome Spirit Airlines’ new nonstop
service from Fort Lauderdale to Belize,” said Hon. Anthony Mahler,
Minister of Tourism, Youth, Sports and Diaspora Relations for Belize.
“This new route enhances our connectivity and offers more convenient
travel options for both visitors and our diaspora.”
Mahler added, “From our breathtaking natural beauty to our
rich cultural experiences, there’s so much waiting to be discovered in Belize.
Strengthening this link with Fort Lauderdale not only boosts travel to our
shores but also deepens tourism ties between our destinations and paves the way
for shared economic opportunities.”
Spirit will begin nonstop service from FLL to Owen Roberts
International Airport (GCM) in Grand Cayman on December 4, 2025, operating three
flights per week on Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.
“Grand Cayman is a dream destination, and we look
forward to offering our guests new, affordable travel options to reach this
island paradise,” said Kirby. “This is a win for travelers across our
network, who are gaining more access to top destinations in the Caribbean and
Latin America as we continue to expand service from Fort Lauderdale.”
Albert Anderson, Chief Executive Officer of the Cayman
Islands Airports Authority (CIAA) added, “We are delighted to welcome
Spirit Airlines to Owen Roberts International Airport with the launch of their
new nonstop service from Fort Lauderdale. This new route enhances connectivity
to one of our key U.S. gateways and provides travelers with an affordable and
convenient option to experience all that the Cayman Islands have to offer. We look forward to a strong partnership
with Spirit as we continue to grow air access and support the development of
tourism and business in the Cayman Islands.”
