Find Cheap Flights from Massachusetts to Illinois

Pros: Quick check-in and short lines for security

Cons: No free water? Really? Things spirit can't do anything about: noisy crying children, loud talking, etc. disrespectful travelers

Pros: nothing...

Cons: Both my round trip flight from Boston to Chicago were canceled due to weather. I wasn't given any warning. The most I got was an email that said "your flight may have been canceled" after the time of when the flight was supposed to leave. I waited in lines for hours to get refunds. I didn't have time to wait a second hour and ended up buying a new flight with American. There were not enough employees to deal with the line of people waiting. We had to wait for two different groups of people flying to other cities to process their baggage. I left the line after an hour or else I would have missed my flight. They gave me a number to call in order to get a refund and this call has taken me about an hour and a lot of explaining, even though a refund was promised. It's too much to deal with. I won't fly with spirit again.

Pros: Flight departed on schedule and arrived before scheduled. Attendants were courteous and helpful.

Cons: Crying baby. Not the airlines fault.

Pros: Quick security check. Flight was on time,

Cons: Late flight delayed

Cons: The customer service agent over the phone had told me "you are allowed one carry one and one checked bag." So I get to the flight desk and turns out I was allowed one checked bag, however I had to pay $52 for it. On top of that our flight was late and the workers at the boarding site was extremely rude. The overall experience was absolutely horrible.

Pros: crew

Cons: legroom

Cons: Didn't realize that bag would cost $50 and that there was not even water available for free. Most uncomfortable flight ever.

Pros: Boarding was fairly quick, but it was a smaller plane than many.

Cons: Given the fees for luggage in both directions, I'm not sure there would be much, if any, savings round trip compared to other airlines, and that's without any of free beverage/snack/entertainment.

Pros: Nothing

Pros: United doesn't care about customers, It was nothing to like about this flight over four hours late, the flight went to it's destination and came back, seems like every other United flight was canceled, Dora huge line about 2 to 3 hours long to get you an agent, there were no hotels available, slept in the airport

Cons: Flight over four hours late, had to sleep in the airport on the chairs, because there was no hotels left, United didn't offer anything, I'm really displeased with them

Cons: It was very cold on flight, other passengers mentioned being cold too.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Everything

Cons: My flight was cancelled less than 2 hours before the departure. I was told this at the airline counter. I took 7 o'clock AMTRAK to go Chicago and then took Blue line (45 minutes) to get to O'Hara airport. The girl at the counter did not explain why the airplane was cancelled. She offered a flight next day at the same time. My poster presentation was at 8:30AM next day. There was no alternative flight from Chicago to Boston. I just cannot believe this. I totally missed my conference presentation. BAD!

Pros: Plane was clean and new looking, seating comfortable, storage good.

Cons: Long check-in line, clerk didn't seem to understand the software. Boarding lounges crowded and shabby. Website confusing and too "cute."

Pros: Flight was average, no Wifi, but I don't use so it wasn't a big deal.

Pros: Best landing I’ve experienced recently!

Pros: Flight was relatively smooth and arrived more than thirty minutes early.

Cons: Flight attendants did the basics without showing any enthusiasm for their job or appreciation for the passengers in business class. Food service in business class was uninspiring as there was no element of "international cuisine" on a flight where some dining creativity would have been welcome.

Cons: Terrible. Two hour delay, power plug not working, AC not working.

Cons: The plane we needed for our flight arrived really late so our flight was then of course delayed.

Pros: Arrived early

Cons: Plane was dirty

Cons: My flight was delayed twice to Boston and I had an appointment to keep. I called the Spirit customer service line repeatedly to ask about travel options and discuss my dilemma. Unfortunately, it seems that phone line is entirely automated. I could not find a human to answer my questions. I finally booked a flight with another airline that was set to arrive in Boston prior to my Spirit flight. I planned to take my return flight home to Chicago, but was informed through email that I had been removed from the flight. I was very upset to learn that my round trip was cancelled by Spirit since I did not take the departure leg of the trip due to all the delays and my time constraints. If I was able to speak to a customer service representative when I repeatedly called for answers, I may have learned of this policy. I was told I could repurchase my flight home for $150, which was too much for me to spend. I am very disappointed that Spirit's budget nature even extends to poor customer service and lack of real humans to provide information during stressful travel situations. Since Spirit has done nothing to make me want to use this airline again, I will be seeking other carriers for my future travel needs.

Cons: I thought it was $25 to bring a carry on but it was $57. What a rip off. I will never fly spirt again.

Pros: Good legroom, no delays

Cons: Almost a 9 hour ordeal. 4 hour delay because of weather for flight because one crew that was supposed to take our flight had “timed out.” Didn’t take off til after 1am. Finally landed and sat on plane because a plane at our gate was “disabled.” It’s 4:33am, I’ve been off the plane for half an hour, no baggage coming out of the carousel yet and no sign of this absolutely horrific experience ending anytime soon.

Pros: JetBlue booked me on next flight out: AA flight only an hour and a half after the one I missed

Cons: Had to check my fragile instrument even though there was room in a closet.

Pros: Having a tv

Cons: Sound jack not working properly , older plane no amenities

Pros: Most of the basics were good.

Cons: The flight was substantially delayed and when we got to Chicago we had to wait a long time for a gate agent so that we could deplane because only one gate agent was working at that hour (10:20 p.m.). Also, the flight delay notifications came after I was close to the airport and at the airport--earlier notifications (if possible) would help. The tv/movie portion of the entertainment was not working at all.

Pros: Flight was comfortable and smooth all the way

Cons: Tastier food options

Cons: It felt like the flight attendant had a long day. Chairs weren't super comfortable.

Cons: Delays both in DETROIT and a huge delay in Shanghai.

Pros: Good flight

Pros: waited for incoming airplane from Jacksonville --

Cons: arrived at 1:30 AM instead of 9:30 PM

Cons: Flight was very delayed, waiting on pilots to arrive. The. We sat on the runway for a long time without leaving as well. Crew also made us gate check bags when there was still plenty of overhead space left on plane.

Cons: 2 hr delay. Poor ventilation

Pros: Seats were comfortable. Take off and landing were smooth.

Cons: The TV/video system was not working. The steward was not helpful to handicap people. Our luggage was lost and the people in the luggage office would not pick up the phone or answer our messages. We had to go through the central baggage office to get help. After two days, we have one of two bags.

Pros: Boarding was fairly quick, but it was a smaller plane than many.

Cons: Given the fees for luggage in both directions, I'm not sure there would be much, if any, savings round trip compared to other airlines, and that's without any of free beverage/snack/entertainment.

Cons: Cheap flight but they get you on bags. $55 for a carryon!!!, really?!!! If if your checked bag is over 40 lbs. You pay Ann extra $30. We paid $350 four the flight for 2 to boston round trip. We ended up paying $310 In extra luggage fees.

Cons: You have to check in an hour before ur flight or else ur flight gets cancelled.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Everything

Pros: Getting off the plane

Cons: The staff

Cons: The pilot on this flight was amazing!

Cons: Entertainment.

Cons: I could not access the games the lady next to me, and others were playing. When I decided to watch movies the earphones were so small they kept falling out of my ears, and I am a small woman. It was a long flight from Tokyo to Dallas, and the lack of diversion became a major irritant.

Cons: The delay in my flight and that nothing was done to compensate that my entire schedule had to be redone to meet the needs of late air crafts, not enough fule and cargo doors not being able to shut.

Pros: No complaints whatsoever.

Pros: Flight was average, no Wifi, but I don't use so it wasn't a big deal.

Cons: Could not here the flight attendant notices well. He spoke to fast.

Cons: They mis-tagged my bag and still haven't found it and have not been helpful or informative when I call to check the status

Cons: More food more room - but hey that’s what we always want

Cons: Bag drop agent was not helpful.

Cons: Gate agent did an excellent job getting everybody on the plane in Atlanta

Cons: Had to check my bag yet others brought on two bin sized pieces. Had to get seat assignment at the gate and rep was rather abrupt with instructions. Smell of fuel in the cabin. In last row which was uncomfortable

Pros: Crew was great.

Cons: We had a mechanical issue which delayed the flight by 30-45 minutes. That wasn't so bad but the whole strategy that Spirit employs is sketchy. We booked our flight through Kayak at a set price and then when we checked in with Spirit online there were no seats available that we didn't have to pay an upgrade fee. To me that is fals marketing or even bait and switch. Won't be flying with them again.

Pros: Everything was good enough today. Only a brief delay. Sure beat the much longer delay experienced on our way to Boston earlier this week.

Cons: The flight attendants promoted signing up for the Spirit credit card during the last few minutes of the flight but didn't have any pens for us to use. But I wouldn't have signed up anyway after reading the conditions, such as expiring miles and limited award seats available on flights. That's OLD SCHOOL. I have a card through a bank where the miles never expire, there aren't any blackouts, and I can use the miles on any flight any airline at any time even if 100 other people ahead of me are using their mileage. HOW? The miles I receive convert to dollar amounts which purchase tickets.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: My return flight is cancelled and I realized that exactly at the time of getting boarding pass and it cause me 12 hours delay to teach my destination as I looked for alternative flight from another airlines ....All in all it's an awful service and awful trip simply I choose Spririt airlines.Charging luggage fee is another worst thing that I realized!!

Pros: Cheap fare

Cons: Idiots cancelled the flight.

Cons: Entertainment.

Pros: Smooth flight & landing. Stewardess was very nice.

Cons: Uncomfortable seats, no leg room. And I'm only 5"2", but could barely lean forward to reach carryon under seat--used my feet instead.

Cons: Baggage claim number was wrong. They almost took my bag away

Pros: Clean airplane.

Cons: The in air internet is confusing and frustrating. Everyone around me was trying to figure out how to get on the internet. It’s a joke.
