Find Cheap Flights from Chicago to Los Angeles (CHI - LAX)

Pros: The flight itself was fine and the staff was friendly.

Cons: Spirit airlines is the greyhound bus of the air. The line to drop off your bag with advance. Heck in and printed boarding pass was inefficient and insane. They need more people at the counters or a better bag drop system. Everything with spirit is ala cart.

Pros: On time boarding, flight and baggage claim

Cons: No healthy food options

Pros: Spirit is exactly what I need for this particular trip. In was inexpensive and I had a quick turn around and no luggage. The plane was clean and newer. The staff was very warm. However, it was bare bones. Everything cost extra. In flight side $3 bag of chips $5. There is no wifi, no seat recliner, a very small tray, no in flight monitor, no in flight entertainment. So set expectations and this was great.

Cons: Spirit is a garbage airline

Pros: Safety

Cons: Unending crying children, non reclining seats,

Pros: The plane crew were friendly and accommodating

Cons: Uncomfortable seats, no food, and no free wifi

Pros: Crew was fine and flight was very close to schedule

Cons: Harsh unpleasant enforcement of carry-on rules. Miserable legroom. Entertainment is just another profit center for united.

Cons: The guy putting his feet on me next to the window

Pros: The movies

Cons: NA

Cons: Great early morning flight.

Cons: Crazy rough, fast landing but not boring!!!

Cons: Overall: pretty good.

Pros: I was actually a little surprised at how much Spirit has changed over the years. It wasn't terrible.

Cons: I did not like the fact that water is being charged. As well as all snacks. Does not seem like an airline that screams service.

Pros: No frills! I love it! The amenities may be Spartan, but there's no need to feel fleeced by all the "complimentary services" that get lumped into your ticket price. Bring your own snacks and water bottle! It's that easy! Look up the current "personal item" size restrictions (18"x14"x8" as of 5/30/2017, and make a cardboard box that is 1/4" less than those dimensions. It's free, it's spacious, and it will fit under your seat!

Cons: I don't like entitled passengers. When you choose to fly on an economy airline, you waive the right to complain about legroom/seat assignments/personal attention from the flight attendants. Spirit handles the cattle in a commendable, humane fashion, it's just that we cattle don't like to be corralled.

Pros: Direct flight to O’Hare that was on time.

Cons: $45 carry on fee EACH WAY is outrageous Seats are super uncomfortable and don’t recline. Flights over 4 hours would be completely insane and tortuous The whole point in booking a discount airliner is to save money but when they hit you with $90 in carryon fees you might as well fly with a better airline.

Pros: Courteous attendants.

Cons: Incredibly uncomfortable seats (NO padding, NO recline, head slopes forward). The tray where something could be placed (tablet, laptop, beverage, pillow, anything) is so tiny to be useless (5" deep). Perhaps tolerable for an hour or 2 max but 3.5 from CHI to LAX = intolerable.

Cons: Before boarding charge me $55 for little bag with notebock

Cons: Everything

Pros: Very smooth flight. Employees very courteous . seats were not bad . i am 6ft 265 lbs and was comfortable on a 4 hour flight.good experience.

Cons: Nothing really

Pros: Crew was very professional, plane was clean. Ride was smooth.

Cons: I had overweight passenger next to me who tried his very best to keep his left arm away from me, but when he fell asleep I was squeezed. No fault of Spirit. It was too tight of a seat arraignment. When I went to get my seat from customer service there was a man with luggage that will fit the template for carry on, but the wheels did not allow his suitcase to fit the length. He had to pay for his luggage, I thought the representative should have not charge him. I bought my ticket last minute as it was business trip decided 2 days prior. I chose Spirit for the convenient schedule, never used them before. For the same amount of money a coworker of mine got very convenient flight with no charge for carry on with assigned seats with American. I thinkg the price was not competitive.

Pros: Crew was very friendly and attentive. Pilot kept us informed of weather and turbulence.

Cons: Baggage fees are ridiculous, and will keep me from using Spirit moving forward. Food options left something to be desired for a 5 hour flight. Flight/gate change updates were sent after I was boarded.

Pros: It was on time, and they didn't lose my bag!

Cons: Seats did not recline at all. Fold down tray was too tiny to use for anything. No entertainment.

Cons: Seats don't go back.

Pros: N/A

Cons: $50 for each checked bag and $75 for carryon bags. Plane seating is child size, no room for a full grown adult. No I’m flight snacks. Nothing good happened on this flight at all. Horrible experience from beginning to end.

Pros: All services where very good from check in to arrival In L.A.

Cons: There wasn't anything I didn't like.

Pros: Crew, comfort

Cons: N/A

Cons: Male attendant is very poor

Pros: Quick boarding, the crew was great, arrived early

Cons: The wifi was inconsistent

Cons: Very uncomfortable seats

Pros: Ticket cost was low and the crew from Ohare to LAX was great

Cons: Our fault for not researching more but baggage fees were extremely high! My husband planned on saving $$$ and packed in a carryon but they wanted to charge him more to carry on than to check? I thought my weight allowance was 50 lbs (like most other airlines). It’s 40lbs otherwise they charge an extra $30!!!!! Not impressed. No complimentary food, snacks or meal on a 4 hr flight. Seats were cheap-didn’t even recline and not Much leg room. Bottom line: if you want a cheap uncomfortable airline go for it. Otherwise pay the little bit extra and go with a mainstream airline for more comfort and perks

Cons: The seats.

Pros: The flight attendants were beyond amazing! Throughout the flight they made sure we had plenty of snacks and drinks. Amazing!

Cons: No food even for sale and no internet

Cons: The delay. Sick passenger and icy wings. None the fault of United

Pros: Plane was on time

Pros: New planes were more comfortable and I love the entertainment being free and with own devices

Cons: Basic economy should not be an option for mileage plus members

Pros: The crew staff was nice

Cons: First off they were late then when it's time to board they change the gate on us and we had to go across the airport to get to the next gate. Then flight was fine when we landed the flight was smooth. Then we had to wait for another 30 minutes to actually get off the airplane. Not happy at all.

Pros: Crew was great!

Cons: Ran out of some food items. (I should have ordered what I want d when I checked in for my flight.)

Pros: They gave me a premium class seat which was not expected or requested! Was super!

Cons: Serve dinner in first class.

Pros: Made my connection on time

Cons: Customs is unorganized. I used Kosik & still had to wait in line twice. Once before i got my luggage and again after i got my luggage. Whew! Be sure you schedule two or three hours between connections or you will miss your flight.I had to wait at carresol for luggage, then drag to drop off point. Take train to gate, quite stressful

Pros: No in seat entertainment

Cons: Need more food options to purchase

Pros: The crew was professional as well as personable. The flight was managed on time. Boarding is always a pleasure since I am a gold club member. But in general, American is trying harder and performing better than other domestic airlines.

Cons: Small seat

Pros: It was a quick service

Cons: Better food

Pros: Our seats were assigned at the gate. Somehow we were given the comfort + seats. Very nice! Thank you!

Pros: Yes

Pros: Seating lacked the ability to recline in any way. There were no snacks or drinks whatsoever

Cons: The seats could recline. On a top tier airline I expect comfortable seating that declines for the price

Pros: I appreciated the heads up on turbulence before we even took off. It facilitated my anxiety because I anticipated it.

Cons: You go into the computer to check your baggage and confirmation then you go to another line so they can give you your baggage tag then you go back to past the 1st area to give them your tagged luggage and then you stand in the security line zig zag 4 areas within a small place I hated it

Pros: Ticket cost was low and the crew from Ohare to LAX was great

Cons: Our fault for not researching more but baggage fees were extremely high! My husband planned on saving $$$ and packed in a carryon but they wanted to charge him more to carry on than to check? I thought my weight allowance was 50 lbs (like most other airlines). It’s 40lbs otherwise they charge an extra $30!!!!! Not impressed. No complimentary food, snacks or meal on a 4 hr flight. Seats were cheap-didn’t even recline and not Much leg room. Bottom line: if you want a cheap uncomfortable airline go for it. Otherwise pay the little bit extra and go with a mainstream airline for more comfort and perks
