Spirit is the worst airline in America. Should be called Biden Airways!

The Big Guy’s 10% check hasn’t cleared yet.

"If the acquisition is approved, JetBlue plans to abandon Spirit’s business model, remove seats from Spirit’s planes, and charge Spirit’s customers higher prices."

In other words, JetBlue plans on giving Spirit customers their legroom back.

I flew Allegiant last September, and I literally had my knees against the seat in front of me the whole flight.

Biden wants Americans to have a choice of two s___ty airlines competing to see which one can delay more flights and ding consumers with more fees.

There’s got to be a business case behind Jet Blue and Spirit but I don’t think we need fewer airlines and less competition.

They should sue to block Microsoft and Activision from merging. I am not a gamer but know this is bad for competition. Microsoft can’t lock up all the key gaming studios to monopolize the market with XBox. They have a bad history of anticompetitive behavior.

Lets block Albertsons merging while we’re at it. In Southern California they were strong competitors, Albertsons ate Safeway that ate Vons. They compete under many different store brand names in various markets. Walmart isn’t enough to keep prices down. Just saw Walmart raise its price on something I buy to match Kroger—Walmart used be cheaper by far, over a dollar—leaving Publix the best deal on that one item, by fifty cents. For now. Got to love Joe’s economy.

So DOJ prefers Spirit go through bankruptcy? This is better for the consumer?

All Jet Blue needs to do is wait for Chapter 7, and pay less money for the same thing.

Flew Spirit once. It was the Saturday night red eye from Vegas to Philly. Never again will I fly Spirit.
