Low cost carrier Spirit Airlines is coming to Hartford, Connecticut with three new leisure routes to Orlando, Fort Lauderdale and Myrtle Beach.
Hartford becomes the 60th city in the Spirit route network.
Services at Hartford kick off from April 27 with the start of flights to Orlando International Airport and Myrtle Beach followed by Fort Lauderdale flights on June 15.
The Florida routes will operate daily while Myrtle Beach is a four times a week service.
"We are thrilled to name Hartford as the 60th city to join our growing network. As the first U.S. airline to give customers the choice to pay for only the extras they want, we know Spirit’s arrival in Hartford will free the region from high airfares and give many more travelers the ability to spend those savings on vacation," said Mark Kopczak, Spirit’s vice president of network planning.
Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy said: "The addition of Spirit Airlines gives residents and businesses in our region another option in a growing, diversified selection of airlines that are servicing our region’s largest airport, and we welcome them to our state."
