The six routes will operate year-round and create dozens of connections to some of Spiritโs most popular destinations, throughout the U.S., Caribbean and Latin America.
โSpirit Airlines is excited to announce service to Music City,โ said Ted Christie, Spirit Airlinesโ President and Chief Executive Officer. โNashville is one of the fastest growing cities in the country and has a lot to offer.
