Pros: "Absolutely nothing. What I liked best was my refund (which I still haven't received)."
Cons: "Flight from Bogota to FL was delayed an hour (there was only an hour between our connections) AND the FL airport forces you to go through customs between flights for connections which took 1.5 hours, so we missed our connection by 2.5 hours. Spirit's solution was to purchase another flight from them"
Pros: "That the flight was over"
Cons: "Had to pay for flight, tiny sardine seat, water and people on flight were in a huge hurry to exit plane at gate, hardly waiting for row by row polite deplaning. At least I had an assigned seat! Baggage took a long time to arrive. The crowd on flight were very loud - awkward personal conversations. Crew were good."
Cons: "You have to pay for everything. No leg room"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Seating was wrong , they gave me a different customer's ticket and had me standing waiting for my seat . Attendant left empty bottle in seating area and walked away . Staff was loud and unproffesional."
Pros: "The end."
Cons: "The airline"
Pros: "Price—got what we paid for—a flight. Nothing more. As the flight attendant stated as she offered drinks or snacks, the only thing free is SMILES!!"
Cons: "Not even a free cup of water! Actually, a cup of ice was free—wow!! Only airline I have encountered that does not offer two free carry-on items—defeats the lower price of your ticket when you have to pay for every little item!!"
Cons: "Multiple delays. Turbulence. Not even offered water."
Pros: "The flight did get me from Chicago to Atlanta successfully, which was essentially the goal. The flight was not at all delayed, which was very appreciated. The staff was wonderfully nice, no complaints."
Cons: "The flight was very simple, I was unaware of their baggage policy before arriving to the airport. Other airlines make it clear how much a carry-on will be, I was unaware, and I felt a little tricked when I got to the airport and paid $55 for my bag. I don’t recall it being clear when I purchased my ticket either. I would have likely gone with another airlines if I knew it would be that expensive for a carry-on. No complimentary beverage service on the flight, which would have been nice. Keep expectations low, I don’t really need entertainment or a complimentary beverage service on the flight, is it nice and very appreciated, yes."
Pros: "Staff are always very professional and kind."
Cons: "Seat mates needed a bath -- BADLY. I don't think there is anything the airlines can do about that!"
Pros: "Very comfortable seats and smooth ride"
Pros: "Nice crew"
Cons: "Every time I've flown with spirit there's been long delays. I understand it's a cheaper flight but they should still respect people's time a little bit more than they do. At least compensate us with something for the time we lose."
Pros: "Flight attendants"
Cons: "Food items were expensive, having to swipe my card for a cup of water was quite annoying. Missed my first flight due to baggage being closed out although I tried to check my bags online almost 3 hours before the flight."
Pros: "flight was just fine"
Cons: "I paid for a seat upgrade I did not get... looked like first 2 rows were the large seats I was in row 8..."
Cons: "Attendant were not professional talked personal businesss during flight. Looked tired"
Pros: "It was a no frills flight, but it was a good no frills flight"
Pros: "Flight left on time"
Cons: "staff was not professional nor helpful. baggage fee is outrageous for carry on."
Pros: "There was a 3 hour delay. They lied about the reason for three delay. They charge way too much for carry on and checked bags. After paying for bags spirit is actually higher than the other airlines."
Cons: "The lying about the reason for the delay. Price of bags."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Worst airline ever"
Cons: "$100 R/T checked bag surcharge. No comp. snacks or beverage. Cramped uncomfortable seating. Inappropriate sale and hard promotion of Spirit credit card on both flights."
Pros: "Great flight and price for tickets"
Cons: "Can't complain"
Pros: "You get exactly what you pay for. A no frills service that gets the job done."
Cons: "The smaller aircraft are a little uncomfortable"
Pros: "They were on time and the return flight crew was friendly."
Cons: "The bag fees for me to check a bag and carry on a second bag was $100, so my inexpensive fare was $200 more. On the flight out the seats were very uncomfortable--plastic non adjusting seats. Thank goodness the flight was only four hours long. While I understand that drinks and snacks are "add ons" and a profit center, passengers have to buy expensive water and snacks with the gate vendors. Surely the airline could stock a few gallons of water for dehydrated passengers? The cost of my two bags would have covered bottled water for everyone on the flight."
Cons: "extra charge on carry on luggage and they charge for a snack and a drink. i will never fly with them again."
Pros: "Nothing really, I will stay away from Spirit in the future."
Cons: "There was a delay in our flight, did not receive a notice or anything. Had to sit in the airport for four hours. Has I received an update or a notice I would of planned around that. Also, the staff didn't seem to care. They just blamed the weather in Philadelphia, when we checked the weather there its was 83 and sunny. When we talked to the staff about it they changed there reason and they finally told us the truth; which was a staffing issue. I guess the previous flight crew decided they had enough and they didn't want to fly to Minneapolis."
Pros: "If not for the people this airline would disappear"
Cons: "Everything"
Cons: "Wouldn't let me board my flight even though I got the almost an hour before take off then told me I had to pay $100 to catch the next flight. I will never got with spirit airlines again."
Pros: "Liked pre-boarding experience, on time flight arrival and baggage pick up"
Cons: "Tight uncomfortable seats"
Cons: "Sudden notice for flight delay near at originally scheduled boarding time."
Cons: "That you had to pay for everything. A water? Really!? Snacks should be somewhat free"
Pros: "I like that I got home."
Cons: "The hidden fees ($20 for a carry on, $20 for a seat, no complimentary soft drinks, etc), the rude attendants, the late departure, the terribly rough landing..."
Pros: "Crew on the plane were very nice but the front desk were not very friendly nor explain things well."
Cons: "Unfortunately- I have a horrible time with your website, was never able to access. (Spirit) Your customer service is horrible, the young lady even hung up on me went I ask to speak to a supervisors! I was nice went expressing my concern, and trying to understand what was happening. The 2nd time I called the young lady was very friendly and helpful but I never got my email and she verified the email address I believe it was a system error. I was so surprise with the cost of baggage has to high. This was my 1st experience with this airline and probably my last. I travel often and I have never had such a horrible experience! I never compliant but this time I must express my concerns."
Cons: "They charge $55 for suitcase (other airlines only charge $25) AND for $55 each carry-on suitcase. They do NOT serve anything, not even water, unless you pay extra for it. The seats are cramped. At McCarran airport, they changed the gate but neglected to tell the people waiting at the gate. In Atlanta, the flight was delayed over an hour, almost 1.5 hours. Overall, I doubt that I will EVER fly with Spirit Airlines again"
Pros: "The flight actually happened."
Cons: "Flight was delayed for multiple hours numerous time before it was CANCELLED and we were told there wasn't another flight for 2 DAYS. I knew it was a horrible airline when I booked, but didn't think it would be this bad. This isn't a rare thing on this airline either."
Pros: "Purchasing my ticket from Kayak was easy and quick! But actually flying Spirit was a horrible experience. There was a delay without explanation regarding my return flight. The planes were old and during take offs and landings seemed to be on the verge of falling apart. The staff was rude and seemed like they were not confident in the planes abilities either. Overall, as a first time Spirit flyer I have no plans of flying with them again. Similarly, now I know why people always fly Delta!"
Pros: "The flight was delayed for 3 hours, with no explanation of any kind. When we landed in Atlanta at 2:30 in the morning, the trains were out of service and we all had to walk from the last gate in the last concourse to baggage claim. We did receive a $50 voucher for future travel for the inconvenience. But I don't think I'll be flying Spirit again."
Cons: "Delayed, exorbitant baggage fees, no beverage or snack service, general logistical incompetence."
Pros: "Once flying it was smooth"
Cons: "Delayed twice, lots of waiting"
Pros: "Arrived at my destination."
Cons: "Flight landed 30 minutes late and then we were delayed another hour with no explanation after being told it'd be only 10 minutes after the last person got off the plane. Unfriendly not even dating to border on polite."
Cons: "Flight kept getting delayed and the crew was not communicating what was going on. Also, the seats are pretty uncomfortable."
Pros: "Air comfort"
Cons: "Charges for luggage is very high. I paid $110 for two bags."
Pros: "All of the Spirit Airlines staff were smiling and friendly. In a busy environment this is not always the case."
Pros: "I liked everything"
Cons: "I didn't like that they charged for the foods when it's over a 100 people who paid . Least could give 1 free condiment"
Pros: "THE CREW AS GOOD"
Cons: "THE PLANE WAS DELAYED AGAIN THE SEATS WERE VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. SECOND TIME IN A WEEK THE FLIGHT WAS DELAYED WAS OVER AN HOUR LATE EACH TIME"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Spirit Airlines gives passengers no time to check in thru security and did not allow me to board even though I was an hour early. They always overbook flights and then cancel your flight at leisure."
Pros: "Excellent, I havent get any issue at all, flights are.on time, excellent customer service, I'm really happy."
Pros: "Overall I had a good flight. Everything went as smooth as it should have."
Cons: "Paying for seats that recline is unreal and paying $40+for a checked bag and a carry-on is quite ridiculous. The maximum weight checked luggage weight is 40 lbs which is quite difficult when your a woman traveling for a week."
Pros: "The low fares are always good"
Cons: "I jus don't like how you have to pay for one small carryon. Everyone should be entitled to at least one. I had to pay almost $90 for my carryon round trip. If that was the case I would have flew with another airline that doesn't charge me for my bag and the fares are not far from the prices of spirit. I. Total my round trip flight cost me $220 jus for air fare and luggage. Not acceptable. I'd rather fly delta or jet blue. I would pay much less than the total investment at spirit and won't have any baggage issues"
Pros: "Crew was friendly & boarding was quick."
Cons: "Bought flight because it was cheapest advertised; however, paid $36 for my one carry-on and another $56 for my one checked bag! The $25 extra was due to it being over their 40# weight limit (other airlines allow 50#). I'm very petite (5'2" & 105#), but still felt the seat was extremely small! Upon landing, there wasn't a gate available; so we waited nearly an hour to de board the plane. The passenger next to me said that's happened 4 of the 5 times he's flown Spirit (1-3 hour waits!!). Lastly, our luggage took a considerably ling time to arrive at baggage claim. Although we landed by 6:43, it was 8:30 before I had my bag and could leave the airport."
