San Francisco Has Spirit!

Business Wire, Feb 9, 2006

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Spirit Airlines announces new daily non-stop service from San Francisco International Airport to Detroit Metro with connecting service to Atlantic City, Cancun, Fort Myers, New York's LaGuardia Airport, Orlando and Myrtle Beach, S.C. Service will begin on May 25th.

These new flights will be served with Spirit Airbus A319 aircraft holding 138 passengers with 8 in Spirit Plus, Business Class and 130 in comfortable coach class. Spirit will complete its transition to an all new Airbus fleet by this fall.

"We are thrilled to add the premier San Francisco area airport to our route map this summer," said Barry Biffle, Chief Marketing Officer of Spirit Airlines. "Customers have been clamoring for service to the City by the Bay and we are delighted to satisfy those cravings for sourdough, chocolate, and trolley cars for less. Providing low fares, great service and brand new planes isn't virgin territory for Spirit. San Francisco will be our 29th city and we see blue skies ahead for a great start of service this May."

"We are extremely pleased that Spirit Airlines has selected San Francisco International Airport," said John L. Martin, Airport Director, San Francisco International Airport. "Spirit Airlines has already developed a reputation for high value, low-cost service and its addition to SFO will mean even more choices for our passengers, which also means more competitive fares for our travelers. We look forward to working with the Spirit Airlines team as they begin their operations in San Francisco."

Schedule Effective May 25, 2006 is currently available through spiritair.com or through Spirit's call center and will be accessible through all other distribution systems next week.
