Low-cost carrier Spirit Airlines has expanded again in the region, this time to the Caribbean coast of Colombia.

Spirit has officially launched its new route between Orlando and Colombia’s charming urban destination of Cartagena.

The flights have launched with two other Colombian destinations, Medellin and Bogota.

The Cartagena flights are running twice weekly on Saturdays and Tuesdays.

It’s all part of what is a big expansion for the carrier in Orlando.

“We’re excited to be back in Orlando announcing even more destinations,” said Bob Fornaro, Spirit Airlines’ Chief Executive Officer. “The future is bright in Orlando.”
