The check-in process at Spirit was horrible. There was no one directing the hundreds of people trying to check-in and drop bags at Spirit. We got in multiple lines and were later told it wasn’t a line. The check-in process needs to be improved. The flight and crew were great.

The check-in process at Spirit was horrible. There was no one directing the hundreds of people trying to check-in and drop bags at Spirit. We got in multiple lines and were later told it wasn’t a line. The check-in process needs to be improved. The flight and crew were great.

The flight itself was good. Definitely a no frills flight. Pay for what on flight, drink, snack. Flight was delayed to start with, then after boarding and doors closed, still sat there for another 40mins before backing out for departure. When heading back home, there were 2 delays that put me back home 2hrs later than expected. Both times I had people waiting.

we are al people and we go through stuff so my scale is only how i felt, I understand we are all humans, i would definitely ride with soirit again, people in orlando are very helpful which makes it all the better .

I couldn't understand the crew when they announced it was a new plane and there was therefore no wifi, huh? Seriously lame for 2025!

My experience was very nice. However, my Spirit flight 409 from Las Vegas to Tampa… the gate Associate Tissa was extremely unprofessional and boarder line rude. While in line I found out that my Uncle died… in that moment Tisza asked if I would help in car of an emergency as I paid for an exit row seat. I stayed “I will”… Tissa didn’t hear then implied that I didn’t understand English, yelled that I needed to speak up and other things. Associates like that will cause Spirit airlines to lose customers.

We got to fly on the new airplane. Much better as it’s roomier and cleaner than before. Most Importantly it’s much more comfortable. I still can’t move the seat back but the extra space made up for it. I didn’t taste the food or drinks because they charge for everything so I didn’t bother. I didn’t experience the entertainment because I downloaded my own movies on my phone. The crew was great. The flight itself was smooth . No complaints.

My flight was arbitrarily changed from 6:00 AM to 5:10 AM ... One less hour of sleep after Christmas Eve, NOT very thoughtful, Oh, and I could not get a refund!!! I paid extra for a front seat and WIFI, there's was NO WIFI (flight 993 Dec 25). Why do you call what you offer FOOD? Would you feed your kids this stuff when you are trapped inside a steel tube for Hours??? Will I get a refund?

Your employees need to learn how to talk to people as creations of Yah. We are not their children nor are we lower than them.

Terrible. 1st and last flight on Spirit. Check in process was a nightmare. Despite arriving 1.6 hours before flight we had to be pulled from the ridiculously long line to “self check” our bags which took 10 min and required assistance. Seats are very uncomfortable , don’t move, no pockets, no entertainment, no wifi Basically like taking a time capsule back to the 70s. No thank you.

Absolutely Terrible. It was delay after delay after delay. I should have been arriving in Philadelphia at 12:05am from Fort Lauderdale instead I didn’t depart from Fort Lauderdale until 12:33am with no rhyme or reason as to why the flight was delayed. The only compensation we received were 12 dollar meal vouchers which by that time we were already boarding the plane and most of the place in the airport were closed so none of the vouchers got used because we were told that we could not use them on the plane .
