Belize just got a lot more convenient and affordable for travelers flying out of South Florida. Starting November 21, 2025, Spirit Airlines will operate a brand-new nonstop route from Fort Lauderdale (FLL) to Belize City (BZE), offering fares as low as $85 one way.
That means in less than two hours, you can leave the city behind and find yourself surrounded by lush jungle, exotic birds, and the gentle rhythm of the Belize River, all just 15 minutes from the international airport. Welcome to Black Orchid Resort, your peaceful escape that feels worlds away but is incredibly easy to reach.
This new airlift is a game-changer for families, couples, and solo travelers looking for a nature-based getaway without the long journey. As the closest full-service resort to the airport, Black Orchid offers a unique blend of comfort, adventure, and tranquility, perfect for travelers arriving on Spirit’s early flight and ready to start exploring the same day.
From cave tubing and wildlife watching to visiting the Belize Zoo or the Maya site of Altun Ha, everything is within reach. And when it’s time to unwind, our riverside restaurant, serene rooms, and tropical gardens provide the perfect backdrop for relaxation.
With Fort Lauderdale now joining the list of 23 nonstop connections to Belize, and this being Spirit’s first entry into the country, we’re thrilled to welcome new guests seeking both affordability and authentic experiences. At Black Orchid Resort, your Belize adventure begins the moment you land.
Book your room today and be one of the first to experience this seamless connection between Florida and paradise.
