Spirit Airlines suspends flights to Guayaquil
The alert was given by several of the blog readers, which took meó to contact Spirit's headquarters directly to confirm what their reservation system already states: Their flights stop operating in February 2025.
Although each case is different from the aerosolílines that have left the país, let's also rememberén that JetBlue ya goó to fly to Quito from Fort Lauderdale and in January leaveá spaghettién Guayaquil also for economic reasonsóair monkeysínea, but there is a patrón that repeats, our fatherís has lost appeal for all the reasons that are known to púwar and when decidingónde optimize resources, we appear immediately on the map.
