If you’ve been waiting for a sign to visit Belize, this is it.
The Belize Tourism Board has just announced that Spirit Airlines will begin direct service from Fort Lauderdale (FLL) to Belize City (BZE) starting November 21, 2025. This new route makes it easier, and more affordable, than ever for travelers to access Belize’s jungle adventures, reef excursions, and cultural gems.
The new nonstop flights will operate three times a week (Mondays, Fridays, and Saturdays) using Airbus A320 aircraft. The best part? Introductory fares start at just USD $85 one way from Florida to Belize. For South Florida residents or anyone connecting via Fort Lauderdale, this opens up a world of possibility for a spontaneous trip, a winter escape, or a long-overdue vacation with friends.
Why This New Flight Is a Game-Changer
This is Spirit Airlines’ first entry into the Belize market, and it’s a major win for both travelers and Belize’s tourism industry. Fort Lauderdale now becomes Belize’s 23rd nonstop destination, joining other exciting gateways like San Francisco and Montreal, which recently launched their own routes.
As the Minister of Tourism, Anthony Mahler, stated, this new flight strengthens travel connections and creates new economic opportunities. For visitors, it means more convenience, more choice, and more savings.
From Fort Lauderdale, Spirit’s network connects easily to dozens of U.S. cities, plus other destinations in the Caribbean and Latin America. That means this Belize route doesn’t just benefit Florida travelers, it opens the door for people across North America to reach Belize with one simple connection.
