Starting this summer, you'll be able to catch a nonstop flight from Houston and Austin to Mexico!
Spirit Airlines announced Wednesday it would be adding two daily nonstop flights from Monterrey International Airport to George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston and Austin-Bergstrom International Airport in Austin starting in June 2022.
According to a press release, this Austin service will be the only nonstop flight between Austin and Monterrey. In Houston, this new flight adds to the Space City's seven international destinations and 17 domestic destinations.
"We're excited about growing our international service from Texas with new daily nonservice from Austin (AUS) and Houston (IAH) to Monterrey, Mexico. Whether traveling for leisure or to visit friends and relatives, Spirit Airlines continues to provide our Guests with More Go," Spirit Airlines Vice President of Network Planning John Kirby said in a statement.
Spirit already has flights traveling to Cancun International Airport, Los Cabos International Airport and Puerto Vallarta International Airport. The Monterrey service is an "expansion inland in addition to the popular beach destinations, focused on connecting friends and relatives with affordable flights."
OMA Group Director General Ricardo Dueñas said, "The addition of these new routes, thanks to our partnership with Spirit Airlines, will benefit our passengers with more convenient options to fly to some of our most popular destinations. We welcome Spirit to the OMA Group."
