Spirit Airlines (NYSE American: FLYY) has recently launched new nonstop service from Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport (SAV) to Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL), Nashville International Airport (BNA), and Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW). This expansion marks Spirit's third destination in Georgia, following its initial service at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) 19 years ago and its recent announcement of new service to Middle Georgia Regional Airport (MCN) in Macon, Georgia, starting October 16, 2025.
The new service, which began on August 14, 2025, offers daily nonstop flights from Savannah to Newark, connecting the southern charm of Savannah to the popular New York metropolitan area. Spirit's route map will grow this fall with the launch of flights to Fort Lauderdale on October 9, 2025, and to Nashville and Detroit on October 10, 2025.
To celebrate the launch, Spirit is offering a Free Spirit loyalty program promotion where members can earn 1,500 bonus points on roundtrip flights and 750 bonus points on one-way flights to and from Savannah. This promotion is available for flights booked by August 21, 2025, and flown by September 21, 2025, for travel between Savannah and Newark, and for flights booked by October 17, 2025, and flown by November 17, 2025, for travel between Savannah and Fort Lauderdale, Nashville, and Detroit [1].
Spirit's new service marks a significant win for the region, providing convenient access to four of Spirit's most popular destinations. This expansion is expected to bring more choice, value, and connectivity to the area, fostering a mutually beneficial partnership between Spirit and the local community.
The airline has received various recognitions for its service and fleet, including being named Best Airline Overall for 2025 by WalletHub and earning top recognition for safety and affordability for the second consecutive year.
