"We are pleased to welcome Spirit Airlines, which will offer additional flight options and low fares for our customers," said Paul J. Wiedefeld, Executive Director of BWI Marshall Airport. "BWI Marshall has the longstanding reputation as the convenient, 'easy come, easy go' airport for the Washington-Baltimore region. The addition of Spirit bolsters that value for travelers in this market."

"Spirit has been providing low fares to Fort Lauderdale with connections to the Caribbean and Latin America from the Washington, DC/Baltimore area for nine years, and we look forward to better serving our customers from throughout the region at its premier low-cost airport - the Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport," says Mark Kopczak, Maryland native and Spirit's Senior Director of Network Planning. "Our new location at BWI provides Spirit with better scheduling flexibility and the ability to add flights to more cities nonstop, which ultimately translates to better service and more low fare options for our customers. Spirit's new nonstop service to Dallas/Fort Worth is a perfect example of the flexibility that BWI provides us."

The carrier is relocating its operations from Washington, DC's Reagan National Airport (DCA) to BWI.
