that airline is still allowed to fly in USA?
we will NEVER patronize them again after they failed to tell an entire plane load of PAID ticket=holders that they “cancelled the flight” MONTHS IN ADVANCE
we were all stranded at the airport ... fortunately, the workers at a neighboring airline’s counter took pity on us all and worked very diligently to find all of us flights on other airlines. We would up flying to another city but it was within 100 miles or so. It cost us over $2000 a ticket more (since it was necessarily a LAST MINUTE reservation) but we had to get there to deliver an eulogy at a church memorial service, otherwise we would have just gone home
Spirit never refunded us the loss.
And their website showed the flight as active ALL THE WHILE.
We will NEVER attempt to fly on that airline again, never ever.
When my Dad died in 1980, I had to book a flight on Northwest to Minneapolis & change planes to Madison, Wis.
MY travel agent said that there were THREATS of a NW strike, but that she & others had been ASSURED that it was still pending-—not active.
I got neighbors to take me to LAX & found out that NW HAD ALREADY GONE ON STRIKE-—BEFORE THEY SOLD TICKETS TO MY AGENT. THEY WERE LYING ALL DAY LONG.
THEN-—They wanted me & go back home & come back to airport for 6 AM flight-—all of which would have been darn near impossible-—nothing but land travel.
I birched enough at the NW counter that they got me a room-—and I shared it with another nice lady-—we were both in same predicament.
WAS about the worst flying experience I could have——
I NEVER flew with NW again.
