Spirit Airlines Inc will build a new South Florida headquarters that will cost $250 million over three years.
The new office campus of as much as 500,000 square feet will consolidate more than 1,200 employees, Spirit said in a statement. The project is scheduled to open in 2022 in Dania Beach, Florida, just south of the carrier’s largest operational base at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
Spirit said it will add about 225 employees when the new office space opens. The headquarters will improve efficiency while supporting the airline’s “ever-expanding international operation,†CEO Ted Christie said in the statement. About 1,000 local employees currently work in a cluster of office buildings in Miramar, Florida, farther from the airport.
