Spirit Airlines
    #23491888 - 07/30/16 08:56 AM (7 years, 5 months ago)

Anybody ever flown Spirit? They're widely regarded as the worst airline in the country, but damn their tickets are cheap :lol:

I may be going to Detroit in the near future to see some family and catch a Tigers game, and round trip Spirit tix are $200. Meanwhile the next cheapest for the same date (American Airlines) is $300. It's a 3 hour flight...pretty sure I can tough out a bad airline for that amount of time so I can save a hundred bucks. Hell I could put that $100 to the car rental.

Anybody here with any Spirit airline experiences? Lmao are they really THAT bad? Like do the flight attendants spit in your drinks? Does it look like a greyhound bus ride in there where half the passengers haven't showered in a week? And did the pilots get their training experience online or something?

Why is Spirit so cheap in comparison to everybody else? There has to be a catch.

I rode the greyhound bus from texas to oregon and back. and then to New York from Texas and back.

I'm sure you'll do fine.

Besides, you're already going to Detroit. You'd probably get jumped coming off of American Airlines. No one's gonna rob a guy riding Spirit.

Damion5050's Coir Tek (I use 5.5 - 6 quarts of water instead of 4. Also ignore step 13 and ignore the monotub completely. The only purpose of this tek is to show you how to make a simple substrate. I also add gypsum to it but not necessary)
Spitball's Monotub Tek (A liner isn't necessary but is useful)
Use 6500k lights throughout the whole process. When you wake up, turn the light on. When you go to sleep turn the light off. It's as simple as that.

Spirit is awful. Seats are even closer than normal airlines. The cost includes literally nothing. Not even a carry-on that's larger than a purse or laptop case. Which also means if your checking a bag it will But like you say for the dirt cheap price

You'll be fine flying domestic I'm sure. I used to fly spirit all the time but haven't in years after 1 incedent. I had an international flight followed by a domestic connection. I missed my connection because my first flight was delayed and customs was really backed up.

Spirit had terrible customer service during the whole ordeal.

So spirit is fine if you don't have any problems with your flight in my experience.

Are you comfortable on a plane that resembles a poorly taken care of public buss from the 80's? I got a round trip ticket with spirit and bought another ticket with American Airlines to get back home because it was that awful... I was sure my life was over the moment the plane took off.

Plane smelled like a retirement home man, I already hate planes though. My grandpa was a pilot and made us fly all the time when we were kids so maybe I'm spoiled but still.... Never again.

It's not so much the flight itself that bothers me -- it's all the stories about how they nickel & dime you for everything. Thus in reality bringing your ticket price up around the same neighborhood as everyone else's.

The strategy for Spirit appears to be that they set really cheap ticket prices (on the surface), but then charge the shit out of you for everything else.

What else do you need besides the seat?

Pack lightly and tell them to take their 10$ bag of peanuts and shove it.

However, in all fairness to the generosity of Spirit's management, I was pleasantly surprised when I went to pee and found that use of the lav is provided completely free. But check the fine print when you book your flight. I will not be surprised when they install coin-operated doors on the lav with an up-charge to flush the previous user's toilet deposit before you go in.

Well for starters they apparently charge $25 per carry on (even if it's your only bag) and charge bigger bags by weight, which according to some, can push the price of one bag in the neighborhood of fifty dollars.

Yea i'm about ready to retract my previous statements after reading that post you linked.

still, if you anticipate their shennanigans and pack light, it looks like you can save a bit.

It's probably not worth the headache but i guess that's up to the consumer to decide.

I also would like your review.Whatever you decide. I fly AA and it's pretty comfy. saw Mad Max for free but without sound. headphones were only two bucks tho and the drinks n snacks were free. my bro even got a few beers for free but that was probably cause the attendant was cool.
