Scores according to KAYAK customer reviews
Cons: "Other flights I have been on let us know what section or terminal we are being dropped off at before we take off and once we get there it is had changed. It helps people who are getting picked up a lot easier especially in a big airport."
Cons: "Due to long line @ tsa flight was missed. Extremely upset"
Pros: "Having layovers in other cities so I could get off the plane."
Cons: "Uncomfortable seats, no entertainment, everything is a charge from a basic water to your bags. After 11 hours of traveling, I can confidently say I would never fly this airline again."
Pros: "direct flight"
Cons: "water should be free"
Cons: "Crew from Ft Lauderdale was very unprofessional and were hanging out as a group, laughing nearly the entire flight; they could not even get through an announcement without busting up."
Cons: "Very poor customer service from Spirit Airlines. All flights to NYC were going through except theirs on Tuesday, apparently because of ATC / weather related. This is a BS excuse and cost us one full day extra in Myrtle Beach instead of NYC."
Pros: "Very very inexpensive! And the folks were nice!!"
Cons: "The delay but it wasn't their fault!"
Cons: "Charge for the luggage was $52.00 when I could buy on line for carry on for $37.00. On the way back the charge was $59.00 for the same luggage."
Cons: "Imagine an all you can eat buffet for $5 with all the best things like prime rib and king crab legs. The reality sets in when they charge you $55 for a plate and an $25 for a fork to eat with. If you want to drink there is an additional $25 water service fee. If you need to use the bathroom that will cost you an additional $50. Your $5 buffet has now cost you $160. The only difference between the above scenario and my flight was the buffet actually cost $300 to start with before piling on the additional fees. It is the only airline that flies directly to Myrtle Beach from here. I had no zero options otherwise without long layovers. The one redeeming thing about this flight was the crew."
Pros: "Easy to find seat"
Cons: "How crowded the isle is"
Cons: "There was a weird smell in the row I was seated in. Passengers on later flight where excessively drunk and rowdy and this impeded other people from sleeping. My previous spirit flight made me uncomfortable because everyone was drunk in the exit row (which is supposed to respond in case of emergency)."
Pros: "I had more leg room than I thought I would. Also the window seats were nice. My personal item fit nicely under the seat in front of me too. Flight attendants were wonderful!"
Cons: "A bottle of water cost $3! Come on man :-/"
Cons: "Seats are terrible"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "I will never fly with spirit again we never made it to New York and we missed my nephew graduation thanks to you people"
Pros: "TAKE OFF WAS SMOOTH"
Cons: "LANDING WAS ROUGH AND SUDDEN, HEAVY FOOT ON THE BRAKES"
Pros: "Seats were better than expected. Pilot did good job flying us through a storm. Kept us informed."
Cons: "Crew was a little pushy."
Pros: "Smooth ride, great crew. first time riding Spirit and certainly won't be my last. You can't beat the price!!!"
Pros: "I had my worse customer service experience in a very long time."
Cons: "I spent over two hours listening to people pretending like they wanted to help me but had no intentions. Airline employees should have no biases but there is clearly racism among people working at Spirit."
Pros: "Landed ahead of schedule. Pilot and crew were very good. All things considered it was good flight"
Cons: "I do not like to pay outrageous prices for a can of soda or beer, the prices they charge are ridiculously outrageous, they could lower them by a dollar or two and still make a good profit. So I just decided not to drink while on a flight."
Pros: "Direct Flight peasant staff and crew"
Cons: "Flight delayed"
Pros: "The lady I sat next to"
Cons: "They put us on the plane only to have us sit in our tiny seats and wait for the luggage and fuel to be loaded and wait some more. Then charge us for everything -even water! Then hard bumpy landing that included a severe tilting of the plane to the left, which made the plane go quiet!"
Pros: "I like that you can use website to change and adjust your flights. I like technology."
Cons: "However, this website was not designed with users in mind. Not easy to find baggage additions and changes. Also, why would the system allow you to have baggage one way when you think that you have set the baggage to go both ways. At lease there should be a warning that you have only paid for one way so you can make adjustment."
Pros: "Everything was great about our flight on Spirit Air"
Pros: "Direct/Nonstop Flight from DTW is a plus. Low price for the most basic transportation. Cabin crew courtesy was acceptable but it's not hard to detect that they're not the happiest folks in the air these days."
Cons: "What can I say about the "Greyhound of the Skies"? These have to be the most uncomfortable seats in the airline industry, both in terms of cushioning as well as width and the inability to recline even slightly. There arent even seat pockets for the safety brochure...just a flimsy bungee cord. While I don't really have an issue with no beverages/snacks provided (I'm content to bring my own), I wish Spirit would knock off the low ball price game with everything being a cash grab including asking me to pony an extra couple of bucks so you can "green up" through the use of more environmentally friendly supplies (I don't know why...you ding people $10 for a boarding pass, and you on board refreshments are pay as you go). Crews seem to be stressed out whenever I fly....I guess instead of paying them more than their DEAD LAST payscale ranking indicate, the $ you make are passing them by on the way to the corporate board room and executive suite. SWA (and others) manage to have very successful low cost business models without reaching in my pockets at every turn. Given the choice...even if its a little more...i won't be flying on Spirit. Front office....get a clue and read the reviews, lest your aircraft find themselves parked in the desert somewhere alongside all the other carriers that went belly up. End of rant"
Pros: "Great round trip prices, well organized boarding for the complete round trip. If you want a specific service then pay for it!"
Pros: "Spirit was great... you have to purchase your own snacks and there was some no entertainment."
Pros: "The flight landed a bit early and that was great."
Cons: "I had a great flight. I needed a bit more space on the flight down because I sat in the middle. My flight to NYC was great because I got the extra space in a regular seat by sitting at the window. Great flight!"
Pros: "The other airline which actually managed to successfully get me home."
Cons: "Spirit bumped me from my flight despite the fact that I showed up over an hour before the departure. They were not only unhelpful and unapologetic, but actually quite hostile as they informed me that they would be offering no compensation or voucher, and would not place me on another flight for 2 days (although they were still advertising flights for the next day on their website)."
Pros: "Our flight was good. Food & Entertainment were N/A"
Cons: "Paying extra for luggage and carry-ons."
Pros: "I would have rather have driven by the time I left the house to get to my destination it took me more time than if I drove!! Plus it was uncomfortable. I could have slept and drove the next morning and at least been warm and have had a good nights sleep!!"
Cons: "Why could airport not turn on heat? Eight hours seating in a cold chair over night was ridiculous!! Then they gave me a middle Seat when I paid for aisle. I understand things happen but a $7.50 voucher for food is not a good reflection of service!!"
Cons: "I arrived an hour before my designated flight time but the line to obtain my ticket was so backed up that it resulted in me missing my flight. There were only two spirit agents who were taking up to ten minutes with each person that approached the desk which is outrageous considering the fast paced nature of an airport."
Pros: "Not one thing. Rude crew, damaged luggage and horribly expensive with having to pay for everything except the air on the plane."
Cons: "The crew was extremely rude. My daughters luggage was severely damaged including the flat iron inside getting broken. The seats are incredibly uncomfortable and you have to pay for everything under the sun. My flight ended up being much more expensive than other carriers but Spirit was the only one that had an available route to meet our cruise ship due to the snow storm."
Cons: "The airlines lied outright to passengers regarding the reason for the 4 hour delay. Reported a ground delay to Laguardia because of ice and snow. It was 43 degrees in NYC!!!! When I pointed that I ought the agent just shrugged. When pressed repeatedly after several hours by various passengers they admitted it was a Spirit Air systems failure. The gate agents were less than helpful and were down right rude when multiple sought information regarding the delay. ( We boarded, pushed off the gate, sat on the tarmac, then were brought back and allowed to leave the plane and wait at the gate) I will never fly with then again."
Pros: "Fast service"
Cons: "Not enough space on the plane. The seats are VERY close together"
Pros: "i pay for luggage $5the5 go and come i have no fun on my trip you are the worst airline ever i)m 60 year old i want my money back1347-7026957 name zennia-"
Pros: "I liked that the flight was on time and went smooth."
Cons: "I am an average sized person. The seating is very cramped. My knees were pressed up against the seat in front of me, very uncomfortable!! Thank god it was only an hour and a half flight. I thought that the flight attendants were very unfriendly. ANd my cheap flight was not really cheap at all, with all the extras, being one suitcase.... Really 50dollars for one suitcase. Spirit ends up costing more than any other airline and they at least give you a snack and a drink, coffee, tea, water!!!!"
Cons: "The women who helped me seemed as if they didn't care about anything I was saying. They were unwilling to help me. And was very rude. I'll never fly spirit again"
Cons: "I bought these tickets through Kayak, which then directed me to priceline. I had no idea during booking that this airline charges an exorbitant fee for every single courtesy. To carry on a bag is minimum $55 and maximum $100. To check a bag is $50. Please tell me, who flies internationally from Guatemala to Boston WITH NO BAGS?! Additionally, soft drinks, which should be complementary are priced at $3. Their motto is don't pay hidden fees for things you don't use, but tell me, who doesn't want a drink on a 2.5 hour flight? The seats were the skinniest, thinnest, most uncomfortable seats I have ever had the displeasure in sitting in and there were advertisements on the overhead compartments, as if I were riding on the NYC subway. Although when I purchased the seats I selected to have my husband and myself sit next to each other, during check in, they tried to charge an additional $10 to rearrange our incorrectly-ticketed seats, so we could sit together as I had originally hoped. We then had the worst layover experience I've had to date, and I've traveled extensively domestically and to 14 countries, some multiple times. We had a 40-minute layover in Myrtle Beach, where 130 people remained on the plane to continue on to Boston. However, nearly all those passengers had different tickets for the second flight and although we did not deplane, we were expected to move ourselves and our baggage to our secondarily assigned seats. For some reason, for our flight to Boston, my husband and I were separated. I would never have voluntarily chosen to be separated from my husband, and I have no idea how we had seats next to each other for our two previous flights, but then were asked to separate for our third 2-hour flight. How is it possible with modern-day computer technology that we could not just remain in our same seats, when we were remaining on the same plane? This was the worst travel experience I have ever had the displeasure of enduring and I will NEVER give my money to this airline again. This airline is a complete scam with all of its hidden costs, lack of customer service and completely inhumane treatment of its passengers. I strongly warn everyone to stay far away from Spirit Airlines."
Pros: "New plane and on time"
Pros: "The woman at the Spirit check in counter in Myrtle Beach airport was friendly, cheerful and downright fun. She put in a lot of extra effort to get my partner and I seated together. Dark hair, I think her name started with an M, but can't recall exactly. Anyway it was one of the best check in experiences ever, and I've had many."
Cons: "Couldn't seem to pre check in without being forced to sign up for the 9-dollar fare club (which I tried for a year and I can say it's a waste - why wouldn't they just be more realistic - nobody expects to pay that little). Probably missed something but I was doing it on my iPad. Worse is being forced to sit through an intrusive an typically loud 2+ minute long commercial for the Spirit MasterCard on every flight! The blaring PA system is very annoying and interrupts any activity you are attempting. What's worse is the completely misleading claims that the gazillion bonus points you get for signing up right away amount to nearly 4 round trip tickets. I tried it once and quickly found that all of the bonus points didn't even cover a single flight. It's downright false advertising."
Pros: "Cheap airfare, however they get you on baggage."
Cons: "Flight 711 out of Myrtle Beach,SC was cancelled without any notification! Only emails I got were one saying my flight was on time and then another, 20min later, saying flight was delayed. My wife and I and about eight other people were there without any notifications of the cancellation and the spirit workers had no remorse and were rude! They did not care we were late for our honeymoon. Thank goodness we at least got our money back but I think there should be something else coming from them for the hassles we had to tolerate yesterday December 14, 2015 considering we had to pay double the price of our original tickets on a different airline."
Pros: "Cheap price. nice plane. It was cramped, but I'm fine with that considering they are a low price airline."
Cons: "My only gripe is that when we arrived at our gate, we had to wait for about 15 minutes because there was another plane there."
Pros: "The flight went well pretty much as scheduled. The cabin crew was friendly"
Cons: "The seats were very cramped barely enough leg room"
Cons: "I flew to SC on JetBlue, which cost me around $90 in total, because they let you fly with one bag for free. Because of scheduling, I flew home on Spirit. My ticket for the Spirit leg cost $78, but at the airport, I was charged another $75 in baggage fees!!! At the airport, Spirit charges you $50 to check one bag. To add insult to injury, they charged me an additional $25 to check my 44 lb bag because it was "overweight," Unbeknownst to me, unlike all other domestic airlines with a weight limit of 50 lbs, Spirit has a weight limit of 40 lbs. The same bag that I flew down on JetBlue for free cost me $75 to fly home, nearly (unexpectedly) DOUBLING my ticket price at the airport."
Pros: "Price"
Cons: "Lack of leg room"
Cons: "They never bothered to tell us that they were going to charge us in our man the leg for our luggage"
Cons: "The water could have been free. I am aware it was a no frills flight."
Pros: "Inexpensive and nice plane."
Cons: "Late..Late..Late.got home @ 3:00 a.m. because of a late departure!"
