“To announce the Myrtle Beach International Airport’s 50^th nonstop market, on the heels of welcoming our 1.0 millionth arriving passenger, is incredible,” said Scott Van Moppes, director of airports. “While Spirit announced three new markets today, the service between Myrtle Beach, SC and Houston, TX puts us over the top. We are excited to celebrate this milestone with Spirit, but it is important to know that the growth is being driven by the majority of our airline partners operating at MYR.
