KC Daily

Spirit Airlines announced an immediate shutdown this past weekend due to financial hardships, leaving Kansas City travelers in a potential hole.

New Itinerary: According to the Kansas City Business Journal, Spirit Airlines was the fifth-busiest airline at KCI in 2025. It captured 2.5% of the airport’s market share, serving 144,582 passengers last year. This was down dramatically from 2024, when Spirit served 243,889 passengers out of KCI.
A Yellow Hole: The budget airline known for its bright yellow planes offered Kansas City travelers nonstop destinations to Fort Lauderdale, Las Vegas, and Orlando. Travelers can still find nonstop flights to Las Vegas on Southwest Airlines, to Orlando on Delta Airlines (seasonal) and Southwest, and to Fort Lauderdale on Southwest.
