AVIATION PING!...................
Well, bye.
Go Ghetto, Go Broke.
Me too
Terrible airline. Have never not had a problem flying them.
I read ... without more crash.
I will miss Spirit. For being a source of entertaining videos.
There are only so many of the communists’ sacred ghettopotomai that fly.....and those that do, physically weigh about a ton or two and want to argue and fight everybody else on the plane.
No sane person, black or white, wants to be exposed to that BS so many are taking Scott Adam’s advice.
Running anything -- including governments -- on increasing and eventually unpayable debt is mathematically innumerate, logically illiterate, and yet so many people's view of a path to "success." Until....
Maybe is charges less than it needs? Duh.
Flying is bad enough for non first class seating. Nobody in their right mind would opt for the lowest class service providers.
Nothing several dozen flights a day wouldn’t solve, contracted by the DHS, to places like Tegucigalpa, Caracas, San Salvador, and Mexico City. Especially San Salvador.
IYKWIM.
They should put their in-plane security cameras on pay-for-view. They might pull in some cash for such “entertainment”.
DEMOCRATS RUIN EVERYTHING THEY TOUCH!
Going up to the Spirit in the Sky.
The Spirit approach means you are incrementally charged for everything. I think our expectations of free peanuts or a soda from other airlines taints that.
In theory, since I have a libertarian streak, I like this, but the hassle of each tiny incremental item being another charge occasion reminds me of the logical extension of roads for tolls. In other words, yes, government can make no roads and allow private land owners to charge a toll for every new property you now have to pass through, but manning those toll places and not knowing what was fully included or allowed for each land owners’ land makes things incredibly inefficient and not practical. This is how Spirit works, though. There's no “complete” package to buy to lose all the one-off hassles, mimicking a normal airline ticket.
I personally know a Spirit pilot, so I hope he comes out of this, well. He's a truly nice guy.
Maybe they could charge for oxygen on the flights. I think that’s the only thing they DON’T already charge for.
How can we exist without the 3am Waffle House of air travel?
Spirit needs to do three things:
1. Replace seats with seats that recline at least a bit, like Southwest.
2. Adopt Southwest’s model for open seating, single class, and free luggage...now that Southwest has abandoned all of that.
3. Run credit checks on every customer so they’re no longer the “Carnival of the Airways”.
Other airlines would likely throw a bunch of cash Spirit’s way just to keep Spirit’s customers from using other airlines.
