In the end it was the price of fuel being the final nail in the coffin. RIP Spirit

      What happened all the profit spirit airlines made for all those years? They really didn’t have any capital left to weather the storm?

      I guess they let the company die instead of operate on a slight loss

      Dave Davis, appointed as the new CEO of Spirit Airlines in April 2025, has a three-year employment package featuring a $950,000 annual base salary and a $4 million signing bonus,

      then they had the audacity to ask for a 500mil bailout

      Damn I just found out about the big ass front seat they have. Literally a fucking recliner sized seat that’s still cheaper than a regular shit seat on any other airline.

      Maybe semantics but it’s not officially over yet (but could be in a matter of hours). And the gravestone says 2025.

      Only a matter of time until the trump admin nails them out and my shares go to the moon

      Why did the government stop the JetBlue merger? How is losing an airline completely better for consumers?

    9. Your tax paying money will save them, dw. You’re paying for that 69.99$ carry-on one way or another.

      How much did the Iran war/Strait of Hormuz situation affect this?

      Or was it the “final nail in the coffin”?

      Honestly airlines should be charging for carry-ons and make checked bags free. That way it doesn’t take half an hour to load and unload the plane.

    12. F spirit airlines . They screwed my wife over so bad on a trip. Trying to resolve the issue I finally told them F off and I hope you go out of business. I had to book my wife with another airline to get her home . Customer service sucked

      I hope southwest joins soon! After making the changes which pulled regular airline pool instead of 2 free checkin!
