Spirit Airlines Crew Base<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Crew bases are airport stations where flight crews typically start and end their trips. Newark is an ideal location for the new pilot crew base due to its strategic position within Spirit’s network and its extensive flight schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spirit has grown to become the second-largest carrier at EWR, with up to 32 peak day departures and service to 22 destinations, including seven added in the past year. The airline began operations at EWR in October 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe’re consistently focused on maintaining a strong, reliable operation. Our growth at EWR, combined with the airport’s location in the nation’s largest metropolitan area, makes Newark perfect for our next pilot crew base,\u201d said John Bendoraitis, Spirit’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSpirit has a long-standing history of serving New Jersey travelers, and this investment demonstrates our commitment to our guests and team members in the Garden State. We thank the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, Newark Liberty International Airport, and our community partners for their ongoing support.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new EWR pilot crew base will join Spirit’s existing crew bases in Atlanta (ATL)<\/a>, Chicago (ORD), Dallas (DFW), Detroit (DTW)<\/a>, Fort Lauderdale (FLL), Houston (IAH), Las Vegas (LAS), Miami (MIA)<\/a>, and Orlando (MCO).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
