Cons: If it did not took 13 hours to get to Minneapolis would have Ben better.
Pros: Seats were close the front
Cons: Due to that fact that Covid-19 is present and we have to wear masks and stay six feet apart... I feel that he flights should not have been full... how can u stay six feet from someone who u don’t know is covid free when u are sitting on top of each other... Orlando airport is the worst airport I’ve ever been to.. they only had a limited amount of restaurants to feed a overcrowded airport... spirit airlines is the worst airline of all and I will never fly with them again... they changed my direct flight from Baltimore to new Orleans to Baltimore to Orlando then to New Orleans with no warning.. that was was very unprofessional... I definitely do not recommend to fly spirit ever again... I will still use kayak in the future for travel
Pros: I like the option to have a big seat up front without the cost of first class tickets.
Cons: Our luggage didn’t even make it on the plane! My husband was there on a business trip and now doesn’t have any of his tools for work for the week. Spirit told him his luggage didn’t even get loaded on the flight.

Cons: All could be better, Spirit is a horrible airline
Pros: Smooth flight
Cons: Worst experience flying. I was the first passenger to board the plane, at 2:22pm, and the flight was supposed to leave at 2:30. We ended up leaving more than an hour later, which made at least 5 passengers including myselft miss our connecting flight to Chicago. They placed ous on the next available flight, which was at 7:30am the next day, but without any hotel accommodations, only a 21-dollar meal voucher. It was their fault we missed our flight and they should have accommodated us.
Cons: The flight was delayed for more than an hour. I was the first person to board at 2:22pm and the flight was supposed to leave at 2:30. Because of this, and poor management in Customs, about 5 passengers including myself did not make it to our connecting flight to Chicago. We were move to the next available flight, which was 7:30am on the next day, and they only provided a 21-dollar meal voucher. No hotel accommodations, even though it was their fault we missed our flight
Pros: Quick, fast. Everything on time
Cons: Noise from all the babies.
Pros: Smooth flight
Cons: There was a persistent wining sound next to the exit seats the entire trip that gave me a headache. The other passengers complained and were compensated on the price of their ticket upgrade but it was loud in the seats behind as well and we got nothing.

Cons: Spirit airlines have the worst crew, they made a guy put his phone in airplane mode when I doesn’t affect the plane at all
