    Recently I flew Spirit on their brand new redesigned seats, which are being marketed as an improvement over these seats.
    Here's a link to the video on those seats:

    @buyerclub2 6 років тому +103

    I have flown Spirit about 5-6 times. Boston to Florida, Vegas, BWI, Here are a few comments
    1. Make sure the savings is worth the lack of services. All of the routes that I have flown them, also are serviced by other airlines. However many times the savings ARE worth it. Flown to Vegas for just $100. And Fort Myers for around $150 Round trip.
    2. Because of how tight their schedules are, and the # of planes they have, weather can completely screw them up. Two times I had my flights canceled on my return from Florida. The first time, I had to wait a day to get back. The second I found a Jet Blue flight and threw away the Spirit return. So in winter if you can't waste a day, you might want to consider alternatives.
    3. If all goes right, they are fine. The planes are new, but seats are tight. One thing I noticed is that on the longer flights the seats are better than those shown in this video. I think the longer flights they are using an Airbus plane. (You can find out the plane before booking.)
    4. If at all possible, fly with just a back pack. Its free. Once you walk on the plane, no one has ever hassled me when I put it in the overhead bin.
    5. Bring an Ipad. And if you have a netflix or a Amazon video down load stuff first. That will make the time go by. Also Kindle books are fine.
    6. A nice thing to do, and will make the trip more pleasant is offer your seat mate to buy them a drink. The $3.00 will make the flight much more pleasant.
    Remember, you are flying on a budget airline. Your flying to get you somewhere, not to have a good time on the plane. When you land, you have saved lots of money to make your visit more fun.

      There is a fucking reason they are rated 2 out of 5 stars on TripAdvisor and 1 star out of 5 on Expedia . They’re literal fucking garbage . My flight just got cancelled and rescheduled in 30 fucking hours . I wanted to fly out to the Dominican Republic for a 7 day vacation and 2 of those days are now lost because of spirit airlines . I can’t get a refund and I just payed the resort $600+ for 2 days all for nothing since I will not be able to enjoy those 2 days . Instead , I’m stuck going back home and coming back the next day . I lost 80$ coming to the airport , another 80$ coming back home and another 80$ coming back the next day to the airport ,not mentioning the $600+ on the resort . $900 lost ... thank you spirit airlines ... you’ll be getting another 1 star review from me to make you one of the worst rated airlines in America . My flight number is 521 to florida and from Florida to Dominican in flight number 738 . If I could give spirit airlines 0 stars I would

    My family and I flew Spirit from Charlotte to Orlando and back. (Disney Vacation) It was 2 really good flights. Airbus A320 both ways and they looked new both ways. We did have a 30 min delay departing Charlotte because our plane was delayed in Baltimore, but we actually made up a lot of that time. Read their policies. For a 1.5 hour flight, they were fine. The flight crews were very, very nice and smiled the whole time. Counter people at check-in were great. No problems for us.

    spirit just started operations in Columbus a year ago and I love it. I have flown them twice from my home 614 since operations began. CMH to FLL for a cruise and most recently 2 weeks ago to see my grandpa in Fort Myers who has cancer so CMH to RSW. Besides that I run track for college and we fly spirit to our meets in LA, (dtw to LAX/ CLE to LAX)Texas, (DTW to AUS) Florida (CLE to MIA)... I never had a problem with service or any bougie complaining as I am a minimalist and practical person who does not waste money on materialistic things or illogical expensive things such as flights. Both flights from Cbus were under $90 round trip were actually ahead of schedule and comfortable. That being said, Columbus is quickly becoming one of Spirit's raising star airports. People need to stop acting shock about LCCs. Yes I have heard the stories about other airports and the passenger complaints about LCCs such as spirit, but if you do your reading you shouldn't be surprised. They Charge for extras not a shock, be smart and play their game, learn to pack light and you will be fine: buy food at the airport (yes its is more expensive, but you get more than paying for a $5 muffin on spirit). you can actually bring an empty gallon jug through security fill it up with water before boarding. Play their game and don't be dumb, they try to save operating costs and so can you. The planes in fact for LCCs are newer fleets with better safety regulations and standards than bigger carriers, LCCs usually have the same fleet on lease to save costs with maintenance and staff. The seats are fine I am 6'1 Athlete an above average guy and i sit pretty comfortably for 3 hour flights on spirit. stop complaining learn how to play their game and enjoy life, I would rather save money any chance i can rather than paying a $500 round trip ticket for 1.5 inches more of leg room and a bag of peanuts. I will admit being able to have a carry on and a personal item is a luxury for me but you can fit a lot into a book bag sized personal item (hotels have washing machines and dryers). People fly LCCs to get somewhere cheap to get away and escape talk to new people on the plane play a game on your phone, LCCs have changed the dynamics of the travel industry for the better. WOW Airlines are connecting the US and Europe for round trip tickets averaging $600 or less, and it stops in a country people once never heard of or wished to go to before they die (Iceland) and the connecting flight is a bonus to the itinerary. And props for LCCs for having direct routes instead of layovers and multiple stops. People stop being dramatic and bougie all the time, dont waste money on more expensive things and dont let consumerism ruin your life. Spirit is fine despite the complaints.

      I recently needed to fly from Atlanta to New York. Southwest was undercutting everyone - including Spirit - by a lot. I think Spirit was around $180, whereas Southwest was only $120 and then the bags were free on top of that. The other airlines were even more. Absolutely no reason to fly Spirit there!

      Looking at February 10th, Spirit is $51 and Southwest can be had for $59. I think the choice is very obvious, especially when you are going to be carrying any form of baggage. You're way ahead with that extra $8!

    In some ways I would rather fly Spirit in a "Big Front Seat" than fly like Delta in a regular coach seat, even if the price is slightly more on Spirit. Yes I don't get a bag of pretzels or half a can of soda on Spirit but who cares, I'd rather have the bigger seat. I can always bring snacks with me. I can't bring a bigger seat with me. And Spirit doesn't try to hide the fact that everything costs extra. Having said all that I would never fly Spirit in a regular seat. I'd always pay the extra for the BFS.

    I use Spirit a lot between Fort Lauderdale and Newark & Atlantic City. I had used Alaska Airlines from Los Angeles to Las Vegas which was pretty cool. I paid $165 for a one-way first class seat back in June 2018. I took Spirit from Las Vegas to Fort Lauderdale via Dallas (30-minute layover) which I try to avoid on flights regardless but it was cheaper so I took it. The flight was full and sat in a regular seat. It was a little uncomfortable but it was worth it. I usually sit in the Big Front seats but for some reason, their website was showing available but it was not granting my request (Technical issue). Overall that flight was pretty good. I had no issues with any of my eastern seaboard flights. I took an Amtrak back to Orlando where I originated to pick up my car. The fare was only $40 from Fort Lauderdale and a 4-hour train ride which was nice. Something different and very relaxing. They did have a dining car to boot. Seats were much better than the first class seat on the 757 Delta flight that I took from Orlando to Los Angeles. I bought the first class Delta based on the cheap price at the time. It was a nonstop flight. So, depending upon the day one flies will depend upon the cost as well. Price wise overall. It was affordable and no issues. Delta, Alaska, Spirit, and Amtrak.

    Your videos are unique. You type your comments in on the video. I like it. It's different. I noticed you were flying to Las Vegas on Spirit. It reminds me of one of my coworkers. I live and work in Milwaukee so the two airlines that offer direct fight service to Las Vegas is Southwest or Frontier. He chose Frontier because it was much cheaper and I told him you're probably going to regret it because it's ranked down with Spirit Airlines. He sure did. His fight was booked at the wrong time and when they tried switching out his tickets, he might have missed his flight. I told him you're better off flying with Southwest even if you have to pay an extra hundred or two so you can avoid the headaches. It's sad how many airline carriers have declined over the years. At least with Southwest you get more spacing between seats and the two free checked bags which you can't beat. Spirit, if you bring a carry on bag, you have to pay for it and their pitch seating I heard is one of the worst. The only three big regrets with Southwest is as following: 1. If you have to book last minute, please don't make your business select in fare only so over priced. If I'm paying that kind of money, I'd at least like business or first class benefits. 2. Please offer assigned seats. I like to know where I'm sitting prior to flight. 3. Please offer some food and additional snack options on board. Out of all the air carriers, I really miss Midwest Airlines. They were the best, especially with their warm cookies.

    We fly Spirit from CLE to Myrtle Beach (90 min flight). Normally fly 2 to 3 round trips a year. Flight and cabin crews always seem very pleasant in fact a few times during the safety review the flight attendant was quite humorous. As I tell my friends if you accept Sprit for what it is “ A nice bus with wings” you’ll get by just fine. Spirit has been a great time saver for us, instead of driving 11 hours to Charleston SC, we now do a 90 minute flight, rent a car in Myrtle and drive 90 minutes to Charleston. I’ll trade a 3 hour trip vs an 11 hour drive any day. Only down side is Myrtle Beach from Cleveland is a seasonal route.

Supposed to be an almost 6 hr flight nonstop & according to the website, my free personal item cant exceed 18×14×4 or i'll be charged. Luckily, the bag i bought is just under that measurement so i should be good to go.

    So far I have had no bad experience with Spirit. I go ahead and pay the extra $50+ for the bigger front seat. I did that on a flight from Panama City, Panama to Fort Lauderdale and it was worth it. Aside from more elbow and leg room, I got on and off the plane first. I got another flight going from Chicago to Panama again on Spirit. Again I springed the extra money for the front seats. Hopefully it will go as smooth and seamless as before.

      Plenty of new planes throughout the history of aviation have had tragic accidents due to engineering oversights. Doesn’t mean they are automatically dangerous forever, they get recalled like cars do for the same reason. You just see more press on an airplane crash than the 600 car accidents due to a faulty “xxx” part.

      Steven W I flew once on Southwest from Newark to Orlando. Of course Spirit has the cheapest flights on that route by quite a bit. Anyhow Southwest at least has notably better legroom and crews are pretty consistent. Biggest difference is the SWA crews love their company more than most other airlines. That’s a good indicator.

    Frontier has the exact same seats and tray tables, I flew on their A321 to and from Florida from Cleveland twice. Never Flew Spirit. Advice: fly Southwest- comfortable seats, decent legroom, free bags, free refreshments, free live TV and entertainment on your own device. Wifi for a nominal fee ($8)

However, my uncle recently allowed me to be his travel companion for the airline he works for which I’d say is 10 times better haha. I wouldn’t fly any farther than Newark to Florida tbh. It’s great for a short flight especially since it’s cheap. Grab a book bag and have a great weekend somewhere.

    Well I just recently flew to San Diego for the annual NCFR conference. My group flew back on Spirit Airlines. The flight was originally at 1:29pm, it got delayed to 2:29 pm. However we did not take off until 3:30 due to plane malfunctions, the engine would not turn on and neither would the air conditioning system. The flight was not smooth at all, and neither was the landing. Also before take off, I am pretty sure one of the wheels was flat because it was making the squeaky flat wheel sound! However, the only good thing about my flight was that the attendants made it good. So after my paragraph, I will NEVER be flying with Spirit Airlines again. I would rather take Southwest, American, JetBlue...more reputable and safer airlines.

  • @tucoelbrutto4491

    I flew them from MIA-LAS (long flight) and several times from Pennsylvania to FLL I it was great, lovely crew, brand new planes, we made it on time...I don't get the hate! Yes it is a low fare carrier...what do you expect?? your own suite like a Emirates flight? If you pay less than 100 buck...this is what you get. I rather the cut cost on IFE or seat recline pitch than secutiry and plane maintenance---NK never had an accident. They must be doing something right.

    I flew on Spirit Airline from Baltimore Washington Int. (BWI) to Los Angeles Int. (LAX) and I found Spirit is just a fine airline for such a low cost ticket. You just have to do research on what is free and what has a cost to it then everything should be OK. I actually like the boarding time; it was very fast since it is a smaller plane with medium amount of passengers. Leg room is OK for me since I am not a big person. There is no charger for cell phone, USB for a laptop, movie to watch but hey what do you expect for such a cheap fare plus it's a 5 hours flight, I don't need these.
