This winter has been awful. It’s even freezing in Florida. Spirit Airlines travelers are dreaming of sunshine, warm sand for spring break 2026. The airline just released its list of the most searched beach destinations. It shows where passengers are most eager to pack their flip-flops and sunglasses before hitting the beach.
From Florida favorites to Caribbean getaways, Spirit’s top searches highlight the continued demand for warm-weather travel during one of the busiest vacation seasons of the year.
Based on customer search activity, the airline’s most popular beach destinations for Spring Break 2026 include:
- Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL)
- San Juan’s Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport (SJU)
- Miami International Airport (MIA)

- Myrtle Beach International Airport (MYR)
- Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ)
- St. Thomas’ Cyril E. King Airport (STT)
- Aruba’s Queen Beatrix International Airport (AUA)

The list reflects a mix of classic Florida beach cities, tropical island destinations, and resort hotspots that remain spring break staples for travelers. Spirit is scheduled to operate nearly 10,000 domestic and international flights between March 12th and 30th, connecting travelers across the US, Caribbean, and Latin America.
Guests looking to elevate their Spring Break experience can choose Spirit’s Spirit First and Premium Economy travel options, which include benefits such as: Priority boarding, seat selection, additional space and comfort, included bags, and no change or cancellation fees. Travelers booking the airline’s Big Front Seats can also enjoy unlimited snacks and beverages (including alcoholic drinks).
Rana Ghosh, Senior Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer at Spirit Airlines, said:
Spring break is all about soaking up the sun, and after many of our Guests endured a very cold winter, we make it easy for them to get there with our unmatched value. With our convenient service and affordable travel options to top leisure destinations, the hardest part of planning a spring getaway will be deciding where to go.”
Anthony’s Take: With searches already surging for destinations like Fort Lauderdale, Cancún, San Juan, and Aruba, Spirit’s latest data shows that spring break planning is well underway. I can’t say I blame anyone given how frigid it has been across the East Coast and Midwest.
