Spirit Airlines, one of the world’s most well-known ultra low-cost carriers, is celebrating a major milestone in Southern California and is inviting travelers to join in on the festivities.

“We first landed at Los Angeles International Airport 25 years ago and are proud to have grown to be one of the largest low-fare airlines at LAX, thanks to the support of our Guests and long-term partners at Los Angeles World Airports,” said Spirit Airlines CEO Ted Christie.

The budget airline also celebrated the 25-year milestone by making a $25,000 donation to the L.A. nonprofit TreePeople.

“The sizable donation will advance the organization’s support of sustainable urban ecosystems in the Greater Los Angeles area through education, volunteer community-based action, and advocacy,” a Spirit news release states.

Christie says the airline is looking forward to continuing to serve L.A. travelers and “investing in the local community through the Spirit Charitable Foundation.”
