Spirit Airlines Adds Direct Flights Between Orlando & Myrtle Beach

Myrtle Beach Airport It’s getting easier to get to Myrtle Beach. Spirit Airlines recently announced direct service between Myrtle Beach and Orlando. This effectively links the top two leading vacation destinations which will be great for Orlando area residents, who may be looking for a vacation of their own during their peak visitor times, like spring break and winter recess. While Orlando is typically packed during those times, Myrtle Beach has plenty to offer including peace and relaxation in an un-crowded atmosphere. Service begins on June 12th.

This comes on the heels of Southern Skyways announcing new direct service to Myrtle Beach from The Tri-Cities, TN., Bridgeport, and Charleston WV., Wilkes-Barre – Scranton, PA., Akron-Canton and Dayton, OH as well as Rockford, IL.

If you are any of the markets served, sign-up for newsletter alerts from the airlines. There should be plenty of special offers as these flights roll out.
