The airline that EVERYBODY should boycott.

Spirit Airlines… NEVER AGAIN!

At first glance, Spirit’s airfares seem pretty appealing.  But once you have fucked yourself by making that plane ticket purchase final… well THAT’s where the fun really begins.  There’s nothing, I repeat, NOTHING complimentary in Spirit.  Oh, you got a carry-on to store on the overhead in-cabin?  Be prepared to pay between $35 to $100 – what you pay depends on when, how and where you decide you want to pay for this carry-on (that other airlines let you bring into the aircraft for FREE).


There are no complimentary snacks.  No chips, no cookies, no entertainment, no personal space… NOTHING.  Oh, you need that boarding pass printed?  If you don’t print that fucker at home, Spirit will charge you $10 EACH WAY.  Everything has a price in their realm.  Even in-cabin water is for sale.


If you are one of those "free spirited" humans (no pun intended) and you are planning on flying in your underwear, nothing to carry (and you are in no rush to arrive to your destination – willing to gamble with your business/leisure time) by all means, buy their tickets and embark on your airport adventure.  For those of us whose time is of the very essence, just do ya’ll a HUGE favor and book with any other airline.

With Hurricane Joaquin on its way, a cancelled concert due to the inclement weather that approaches the coast of Myrtle Beach, and the South Carolina weather news making us all aware of possible evacuations due to strong winds, rains, floods and the likes, and possible state of emergency status on the east coast, we TRIED… miserably, to cancel our flights to Myrtle Beach, SC.  We hit a wall with Spirit Airlines and their TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE customer service.  Nothing is refundable, and if I wanted to cancel just cause my little heart desires, then I would totally understand that, but THE ONLY REASON WE WANT TO CANCEL IS BECAUSE THERE IS A MOFO HURRICANE ON ITS WAY!  Nopes, Spirit won’t budge.  Spirit don’t care.

Even their modification/cancellation fees and “credit” are ridiculously high.  At a $110 to $120 per person, per booking, per cancellation, per modification.  Say, you had this vacation planned with your significant other (or whoever) and something were to happen that one of you can't make it, then obviously neither of you can make it, and NEED to cancel... Well, that would be a $220-$240 slap on yo face cancellation fee.


The remainder of the fare?  NOPES, you will not receive that money, EVER.  What will you get? "Store credit".  How long do you have to spend this "store credit"? SIXTY DAYS.  No, not a year, not 6 months, and definitely NOT 3 months, but 60 days.  If you are two working adults, good luck with being able to magically make those vacation days available per Spirit's convenience.

So, why are people giving business to this airline?  Why is this airline still in business?!?! I cannot fathom the idea that there’s anybody out there that has anything positive to say about this airline. I mean, an airline that doesn’t provide complimentary drinking water… yeah… that’s pretty bad.  I entered into Spirit’s customer hell due to IGNORANCE.  For that, I can’t blame them.  I do know one thing though, If I ever were to come by a FREE round trip Spirit Airlines’ ticket, I will happily decline!  Fool me once!

Think I'm angry, disturbed, annoyed, spiteful, exaggerating?
Buzzfeed doesnt think so! > > > Buzzfeed On Spirit Airlines < < <
