New Direct Service from Detroit to Boston: A Game Changer - Flights from $83!
Great news for Detroit travelers! Spirit Airlines has announced a new direct service from Detroit to Boston starting June 5th (article link here), offering tickets at an unprecedented low price of $83. This is the lowest price I’ve ever seen on this route and well below the historical average of $200-$250. This showcases the impact a low-cost carrier can have on market prices. I have only listed two flights below, but will be keeping an eye on this route through the summer and fall and will post when prices drop.
This exciting addition is part of Spirit Airlines' expansion at Boston’s Logan Airport, which includes new nonstop flights to several other destinations. With the summer travel season approaching, this is the perfect opportunity to explore Boston without breaking the bank.
