Spirit Airlines is expanding its reach in Tennessee with new nonstop flights from Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (CHA) starting June 4, 2025. The airline will offer direct services to three major destinations: Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL), Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), and Orlando International Airport (MCO).
This will be the first time Chattanooga has had nonstop flights to these locations, providing travelers with more affordable and convenient options.
“We’re thrilled to expand our Tennessee network and introduce these new routes just in time for summer,” said John Kirby, Vice President of Network Planning at Spirit Airlines. “Chattanooga, known for its beautiful scenery, will be a great destination for East Coast travelers looking for southern charm, stunning views, and outdoor activities.”
April Cameron, President and CEO of Chattanooga Airport, expressed excitement about the new service, adding, “We are proud to partner with Spirit Airlines to offer these highly anticipated destinations to our community. This expansion will give our passengers access to even more travel options, along with a wide range of connections.”
