Jersey to LA flights will become cheaper..Spirit Adds

Spirit Airlines is expanding from (EWR), increasing the carrier’s footprint at the New Jersey airport to 17 destinations across the US.
The ULCC intends to begin flights to Indianapolis (IND), Oakland (OAK) and Pittsburgh (PIT), alongside to the recently confirmed Los Angeles (LAX) service. All four will be served daily.
In addition, Spirit plans to run a temporary route to Louisville (SDF) during the Kentucky Derby. Two SDF flights will operate on May 5 and May 8.
Spirit began flying to Newark in October 2016—its second in the New York area alongside LaGuardia (LGA). The latest network additions mean ULCC will offer 24 departures on peak days at EWR, doubling in size compared to 2019.
“As our domestic travel options continue to grow, we are excited to have Spirit expand its service routes,” said James Gill, general manager of New Jersey Airports.
“This helps keep Newark Liberty competitive as it provides business and leisure travelers with additional choices and greater flexibility in planning their trips.”
Earlier this month it emerged that Spirit will begin flying between Newark and Los Angeles on May 5 using Airbus A320neos.
The airline already serves the New York-Los Angeles market with a Saturday-only LGA-LAX service, while the new EWR-LAX route will provide direct competition with Alaska Airlines, JetBlue Airways and United Airlines.
