"The airport has seen an 80% increase in non-stop destinations in the past two years."

The new service will complement the airline’s existing service from Latrobe, thereby enabling the company to offer more ultra-low fare options from western Pennsylvania.

Allegheny County executive Rich Fitzgerald said: “We are thrilled that Spirit has joined the growing list of airlines at Pittsburgh International Airport offering non-stop service.

“We're proud that the airport has seen an 80% increase in non-stop destinations in the past two years. Its growth matches the renaissance of our region and we're delighted to have Spirit join us in those gains.”

With the launch of the new routes, Pittsburgh will become the 61st city to join the airline's expanding network.
