“Whether you’re planning the ultimate summer beach vacation for your family or a golf getaway at the more than 100 courses in the ‘Golf Capital of the World’, Spirit’s new nonstop service will improve accessibility to Myrtle Beach and the South Carolina coastline,” said Monroe County Executive Adam Bello.
