Spirit will offer four flights per week between the two destinations. Nonstop service begins April 13 between Atlantic City and New Orleans.

Kevin Dolliole, director of aviation for the New Orleans Aviation Board, said Atlantic City has been underserved from the airport.

“It will now be easier than ever for New Jersey travelers to experience the unique culture of New Orleans with Spirit’s ultra-low fares,” Dolliole said in a news release.

Spirit Airlines has an introduction price of $49.99 each way including taxes that is valid on select days of the week between April 13 and May 22, according to a spokesperson.

Spirit will also begin seasonal nonstop service from Columbus, Ohio, starting March 22. In addition, Spirit recently began service to New Orleans from Boston, Newark/New York, Tampa and Minneapolis-St. Paul.

Spirit currently operates 19 daily flights from New Orleans to 17 locations.
