Spirit Airlines adds nonstop flights from Milwaukee to Detroit

Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport
MILWAUKEE - Spirit Airlines announced on Wednesday, April 16 plans to add new nonstop service between Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (MKE) and Detroit, Michigan beginning June 13.
What we know:
Spirit now offers nonstop flights from Milwaukee to/from nine locations: Baltimore, Detroit, Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Nashville, Orlando, and Tampa. (Note: some destinations are served seasonally.)
Additionally, Spirit is making these new Milwaukee flights affordable with introductory fares as low as $37 each way. The new flights will operate to/from MKE twice per week.
What they're saying:
"At less than an hour of flight time, these new flights to the Motor City are significantly faster than dealing with the six-hour drive and Chicago traffic delays," Airport Director Brian Dranzik said.
