Texans gain only nonstop from Austin to Monterrey, and a second option from Houston
Spirit Airlines (NYSE: SAVE) launched daily, nonstop service to Monterrey International Airport (MTY) today, offering an easy and affordable way for travelers to visit friends and relatives and vacation in the Nuevo León state capital from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) and George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH).
“It’s exciting to launch service in Monterrey with a milestone route from Austin that provides critical connectivity and a nonstop route from Houston that expands our extensive international service at IAH,” said John Kirby, Vice President of Network Planning. “Monterrey attracts vacationers, and family and friends all year long and is a great addition for our Guests looking for high-value options to visit Mexico’s third-largest city.”
The new MTY service is the airline’s only inland Mexican destination, giving Guests More Go to Monterrey’s unique mix of a modern cityscape, picturesque old towns, and impressive mountain views. MTY is the fourth Mexican airport Spirit serves, adding to its operations at Cancun International Airport (CUN), Los Cabos International Airport (SJD), and Puerto Vallarta International Airport (PVR).

“Spirit is a very important partner for OMA. Together, we are strengthening our ties to the United States from Monterrey International Airport to key destinations such as Austin and Houston,” said Ricardo Dueñas, Managing Director of OMA.
The Spirit Charitable Foundation commemorated the carrier’s entrance into Monterrey with a $20,000 donation to DIF Capullos, a Mexican nonprofit that helps protect young children and adolescents who are victims of mistreatment and violence in Monterrey. The charity’s mission supports the Foundation’s commitment to Children and Families in a country where Spirit’s service continues to grow.
