Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) remains a crucial hub for domestic flights in Florida, particularly for low-cost and ultra-low-cost carriers. The airport's largest airline, Spirit Airlines, accounts for over 30% of the traffic according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. JetBlue follows with around 18%, while Delta Air Lines and Southwest Airlines each carry about 14% of passengers, with United Airlines at 8%.
Despite being in Chapter 11 bankruptcy, Spirit Airlines maintains Fort Lauderdale as a vital market and uses it as a gateway to Latin America. Its headquarters are close to the airport, further emphasizing its importance.
Fort Lauderdale's longest domestic routes cover significant distances across the United States. Delta Air Lines operates one of these long routes from Fort Lauderdale to Salt Lake City, offering 31 monthly frequencies with over 12,000 seats available both ways. The route serves as an essential connection between Delta’s network and the western U.S.
