Spirit Airlines Grows in Houston

Miramar, Florida

Just two weeks after starting service in Houston, Spirit Airlines is expanding with the addition of daily nonstop service to two more cities. The airline today began service from Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) to Chicago O’Hare International Airport and Las Vegas McCarran International Airport.

 Spirit started operations at IAH with twice daily nonstop service between Houston and Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport on Sept. 20, 2012, with connections available with connections available to 12 destinations throughout the Americas, including Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Denver, Fort Myers, Las Vegas, Myrtle Beach, Oakland/San Francisco, Phoenix/Mesa, Portland (Oregon), Tampa, and Toluca/Mexico City.

 “On behalf of Mayor Rahm Emanuel, we’re pleased that Spirit Airlines’ continues to add service at Chicago’s global gateway – O’Hare International Airport,” said Rosemarie S. Andolino, Commissioner of the Chicago Department of Aviation (CDA). “The low-fare service to Houston from Chicago is great news for travelers.”
