Yes, it was interesting what was coming up on the google search for "flight 730".

One of the things that caught my eye was a flight 730 Spirit Airways from Atlantic City, stopping in Chicago, then on to was it LAX or Las Vegas? Can't remember the final destination.

But it seems to have been a cancelled route, I could only find old information on it.
