Spirit Airlines is marking a major milestone in Chicago as it celebrates 25 years at Chicago O’Hare International Airport (ORD). Since launching operations back in 2000, Spirit has offered affordable, nonstop service to destinations across the United States, Latin America, and the Caribbean.

To commemorate the 25th anniversary, Spirit is offering customers a special promotion of 25% off base fares using promo code “25PCT.” The discount applies to one-way travel from Chicago O’Hare International Airport (ORD) booked between October 6th and October 12th for travel between October 20th and December 10th.

Spirit Airlines has maintained a strong presence in Chicago for 25 years, helping millions of travelers reach leisure and business destinations affordably. I know I have flown them many times back and forth to Tampa International Airport (TPA). With the anniversary fare sale and Free Spirit rewards offers, Spirit invites travelers to celebrate this milestone year by exploring new destinations and enjoying the savings and benefits that have made Spirit a favorite among value-conscious flyers for a quarter of a century.

Rana Ghosh, Senior Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer at Spirit Airlines, said:

For 25 years our Chicago Guests have embraced our high-value service, and we’re excited to commemorate this milestone moment with a special flight deal for Windy City travelers. A big thank you to the O’Hare airport team for their partnership over the years as we continue to deliver the greatest value to Chicago travelers.”

Commissioner Michael McMurray of the Chicago Department of Aviation (CDA), added:

On behalf of Mayor Brandon Johnson, I congratulate Spirit Airlines on 25 years at O’Hare International Airport. Spirit has been a vital partner since 2000, providing Chicagoans with affordable, reliable options to connect with leisure destinations year-round. We are grateful for their commitment to O’Hare and look forward to many more years of partnership.”

Anthony’s Take: Happy 25th in Chicago, Spirit. I’ll be checking out this sale as I have a few tickets to book.
