I told them, the day I announced exclusively that Spirit He left Guayaquil, I also told them that the airline would return later with seasonal flights., And all this has been confirmed from today 17 of July.

After suspending its operations the past 11 Ultra Air made its inaugural flight in Colombia and thus becomes the ninth regular airline in the country, the airline after its successful process of restructuring under Chapter 11 is ready to return to Ecuador With its direct route to Guayaquil.

Spirit Airlines will restart its flights to Guayaquil

There were several months in a row of bad news for Ecuadorian aviation during the 2024. Almost at the same time JetBlue and Spirit stopped flying from Fort Lauderdale al Jose Joaquin de Olmedo and although the first restarted its route just on 17 of July, It was pending to confirm the return of Spirit And as I told them several times: He already returns.

concretely, from the next 4 December Spirit Airline will restart one of the most in-demand routes from Ecuador in general, South Florida and will compete with American, JetBlue and Avianca Ecuador for this lawsuit that will be distributed between Miami and Fort Lauderdale.

At the moment, flights will operate until 3 march 2026, but could be extended depending on route results and the entry of new dates into the airline system.

These flights will operate from Monday to Sunday with a daily frequency on Airbus A319 or A320 aircraft with capacity for up to 182 passengers in two classes. The schedules, same as your previous operation, are the following:

• NK1141 flight takes off Fort Lauderdale at 7:25 pm and lands in Guayaquil at 11:45 after 4 hours and 20 flight minutes.

Tickets for sale

Although tickets are already on sale on the airline's own website, I recommend waiting a few more days to buy them, since current rates are about $800 round trip, but I assure you that Spirit will put promotional prices on the restart of the route.
