    I've used spirit on several occasions and never have missed a flight. I think they may have been late once or twice but for the price you cannot beat it. If you simply adhere to the rules and pay attention you will not be charged for anything extra. If you don't take the time to buy your bags online, etc that's your fault. Not spirit. Also, I always get the exit seat or pay for the big front seat. So much leg room. Once again, I have used them several times with no issues. All the bad reviews are because people are too stupid to read. They are too stupid to read therefore since they are stupid they blame the airline. It's real simple. Pay for your bags online, if you need them. Don't wait till you are at the line ready to board. You get all kinds of warnings when you are paying for your flight. So yeah once again I haven't had any bad experiences with them. I can normally pack pretty light and get everything I need as my personal carry on for free in my backpack. If you have more than a backpack simple pre pay for your bags. Don't be dumb lol People crying about boarding passes. Simply download the app. Or take a pic of it from your phone. Easy as hell. But no it's spirits fault because you don't pay attention. People shouldn't be allowed to give bad reviews for being stupid and not reading. If you read they tell you to print your boarding pass or get the app cause it will cost you 10.00. They tell you to pre pay for your bags, they tell you no free snacks or water. All these cry babies crying because they don't read and are lazy.

    Avoid this airline at all cost. If you expect a budget flight, this is not it. If you are looking for a cheap airline that is unreliable and constant delays, then this is the airline for you. Also, their planes are small so you can expect a lot of vibration and rough moments on the plane. We decided to book a late evening flight and the flight was delayed 3hrs which meant we will arrive 3 hrs later. No description of why the flight was delayed. Upon further review, we noticed that other spirit flights at the airport were delayed as well. Whether it's a glitch in their system or poor weather, management needs to communicate with their customers better on this. Also, upon boarding the plane, the seats are very crammed together and the seat tray is a JOKE. You can barely put a phone on the table. What if you are going to eat food on the plane, would it be alright for customers to eat food using the seats as a table. This is screaming unsanitary to the customers. Also, don't purchase the seats with the larger foot space. It's not worth the $$. If you want an affordable option, choose another airline. Spirit is very unreliable and the experience will taint your time flying. Trust me Yelpers, just say NO to Spirit. You can thank me later! If you must take this airline, don't download the app. It will not allow you to get a scannable code for your boarding pass. The app will tell you to get it at the airport for a $10 fee. Again, avoid this airline and their app.

    Did not load my luggage. When luggage arrived 7 hours later they shipped it to me with a scheduled delivery of 4days later. Now I'm back home and my luggage is still not even with Spirit. Flight was delayed in return. They never return any call or voicemail. Tons of time Spent dealing with STILL unresolved issue. I'm mentally exhausted from dealing with this every day. Wasted Tons of Family vacation time going to Walmart for clothes and waiting on hold. They also caused me to have to change car rental places since I was late, costing me an additional $250. Fuel spent traveling to get supplies I had packed. I've been told multiple times I'd be contacted by a supervisor, still nothing. I've never felt less important than this company has made my family feel as a customer.

    Horrible airline because the planes are small, the seats are small and you can feel all the turbulence of the plane as it flies. Thank goodness, Spirit is primarily for short flights. However, this is not COVID-19 friendly, unless they completely don't book the flight and leave a seat empty next to you, which I get. No food or drinks. Must be purchased. Luggage cannot weigh over 50lb or you'll get charged. Actually, scratch that, 30lbs. I've met nothing but drunk people next to me, totally a quick trip and that's the most I could take. Flew to Los Angeles from Denver... However coming back from Las Vegas, Nevada?? Sometimes, you just want to fall asleep and you can't because it's hot and sticky on these dirty seats.

    What horrific customer service. I have a deathly peanut allergy and they refused to not serve nuts On my flight. I had to ride with my jacket over my face the entire time fearful for my life. When I told the steward and the front desk girls of my allergy their response "you carry an epipen with you right?" Little do they know as soon as you go into anaphylactic shock and have to use your epipen you immediately have to go to the hospital. Which isn't exactly possible when you're flying. I will never fly with this horrible company again.

    Spirit employee changed my confirmed seat to the last row on purpose.

    I was deliberately moved from my assigned seat 10D to 31F which is the last row without a window by a very inappropriate Spirit employee on November 21st 2019 at 11am. Look him up Spirit. He's rude, made rude and inappropriate comments and pulled a fast one one me. Not acceptable. I would like to talk to his manager and supervisor. Attached is a picture of my reserved seat which was crossed out and reassigned as I boarded the plane. The flight attendants agreed that this was maliciously changed on purpose.

    First off, this was my second flight EVER, and I also know Sh** happens. My first flight was with Frontier, they were on-time and overall great. My flight with Spirit wasn't as great. My flight was delayed 10x , literally 10x. In addition to the delays, we also changed terminals ; no big deal right ? The employees didn't bother telling us about the change until 5 minutes before boarding. I was sitting in LAX from 4pm to 3am pt. I will NEVER fly this with air line again, I will also tell everyone I know how absolutely unprofessional and unprepared they are.

    The only way this flight could be worse is if the crying baby was louder.

    It's easy to rip into Frontier Airlines at times, but let's face it: they are often times the most…read morefinancially feasible option. I use the same rule for Frontier Airlines that I had for Spirit Airlines: they can be good for a short, quick flight from Las Vegas to maybe Phoenix, San Diego, Los Angeles, Denver, and San Francisco. That's about it. Anything longer I don't think it's worth enduring. I remember taking Frontier to Cincinnati and that was not a good call on my part lol Those seats were so tiny and uncomfortable. I am not a physically large person, and it was still wildly uncomfortable. The crews were fantastic for both flights going from Las Vegas to Denver round trip. Plus, from Denver to Vegas there was an empty seat next to me so that was awesome. Bottom line: They got me there safely and respectably close to on time. They also did it at a great price if you pack light. BTW, I don't know how consistent they are with this, but they were being VERY generous when decided where the line was between "personal item" and carry-on. Some people were walking in with some pretty large bag bursting at the seams. lol I thought one guy was going to stand on the thing to fit his bag in the "personal item" size-tester. I literally had 2 sets of clothes and some toiletries, so I packed very light. lol It made it easy for me. :) Like I mentioned earlier, it may be okay for short flights, but I wouldn't do anything over maybe 3 hours max each way. If you go in with your eyes open, it can be well worth it. 3 stars.

The terminal A77 gate is in a very old building, low ceilings, gross, and you have to go outside to board. There is no room to line up so they smash groups 1 and 2 together, so why did I pay for the upgrade to be seated first? Cant hear the guy who announces, he yells but with no mic how can you hear? Only good thing is I got my steps in

From aircraft cleaners, baggage handlers, customer service Reps, Skilled Aviation & Ground Mechanics, to the Pilots and non-contract management that coordinates the global and domestic schedules of this United Team. I see bright Stars that shine through the unforeseen delays, misconnects and occasional human missteps that fall short of expectations. I have a great respect for those that make United rise above the trials & troubles that come and go. I especially have a great respect and honor for those hero's that were apart of the 9-11 tragedy that effected or our nation and the loss of souls on board both United and American Airlines, that fateful day in history. While there is always room for improvement, United continues to grow, reinvent and yet stay true to their values of Quality, Safety, Unity and emulate the excellence of service in the Friendly Sky's! Thank you United for your heartfelt dedication of Uniting our world!

    We used United Airlines on our most recent trip. It is one of the two airlines we use most often…read more Our experiences were different on our eastbound trip from that on our westbound trip home. Everything on our departing flight could not have been more perfect. We had a very new jet with updated interior seating. We left on time, the weather was very good and the staff could not have been nicer. The snacks are more meager than our other preferred airline, but the options suited most others seated near me. We had excellent help from TSA and from United as I used a wheelchair for airport mobility for the first time. I hope I will not need it for our next trip. We landed on time in Hartford at BDL and were met by our friends who were picking us up. We had not checked bags so we merely had to walk out the door to meet them. There had been plenty of room for our carryons. Our return from Hartford could not have been more different. We had booked the same class seats in almost the same row. These seats were older and the bottom cushion of my seat was broken or detached from the back cushion. The plane was so full, there would not have been an option to relocate, so I said nothing. They had to take a lot of carryons from the back rows of passengers and send them through as "checked." We did not have to relinquish ours, which played out later for those who surrendered theirs. We took off on time but we knew we were heading to Denver during afternoon thunderstorm predictions. The snacks were even more meager. When we got close to Denver, the pilot alerted us that there had been some storms and ground stops already and we would be circling for quite some time. He thought we had enough fuel to do so. We spent about 2 hours coasting and bumping over Texas and New Mexico, seat belt signs on all the time. None of this was United's fault, of course. But it led to much discomfort on the plane. Finally the pilot told us that refueling had become necessary so we were landed in Grand Junction to do so. We were not allowed off of the plane because GJT does not have TSA in the evenings. But at least we could get out of our seats, stand or walk a bit to stretch our legs and use what water and snacks we had left of our own supplies. The flight attendants had nothing more to offer. People with a nearby destination were able to call for pickup by friends since GJT had no rental cars, and never has one way rental options. Also, no checked luggage could be dispensed. About 6 people got up and left with only their carry on. The staff had no resources but were as nice as they could be under the circumstances. We finally arrived in Denver, a little after midnight, 5 hours late. I am not sure even a cancelled flight could have turned out better. They made the choice to fly, being optimistic. I was relieved to be home by 1am. I would never want to repeat this event though. Just bad luck, but a nicer plane and more snacks and drinks would have been nice. It is a guess on how to rate this, so I am giving the best guess for an average of the 2 flights.

When I called customer service, the representative assured me I would still make my connecting flight to Los Angeles because that connection was also delayed. Furthermore, once we finally boarded, our 1.5-hour flight somehow took nearly three hours. ​Upon landing in Denver, our connecting aircraft was still parked at the gate. Despite this, we discovered during our flight that Southwest had canceled our connection and rebooked us for a morning departure. ​The situation at the gate was deeply frustrating and unfair for these reasons: Arbitrary Boarding Denials: Approximately 20 passengers were left stranded. The flight was delayed by over four hours, yet gate agents arbitrarily allowed some passengers to board while turning others away, with no clear explanation. ​Unhelpful Staff: Both the Southwest desk representative and the gate agent refused to listen, reasoning, or offer any assistance, leaving us stranded. ​Lack of Accommodations: Leaving roughly 20 patrons stranded overnight--forcing us to sleep on airport floors or plastic seats with zero overnight accommodations or vouchers--is disgraceful. After traveling for nearly 24 hours without proper rest, this lack of care was devastating. ​Inadequate Compensation: To add insult to injury, the refund offered for this severe disruption was a mere $14 credit, which is insulting. ​Because I refused to spend the night stranded at the airport, I was forced to scramble and purchase a last-minute ticket on another airline just to get home that day. ​Southwest's failure to take care of its passengers during a massive operational breakdown is completely unacceptable. ​Given how easily patrons were left stranded and struggling without support, I will no longer fly with Southwest Airlines.

Had gotten there extra early, even though the TSA website indicated short wait times at DIA. Boarding was easy. Sank into my seat and ordered tonic water to stave off leg cramps.

I arrived at Heathrow hours early as I shared a cab with a coworker and his flight was much earlier. I could not check in on the app or on the website in the day prior, so I stood in line for close to an hour at the American window where they told me I was actually flying BA (my travel record showed American) and I needed to go to another terminal. I got to that terminal and tried to get in line to check in but BA employee said I needed to use the kiosk. I explained I was unable to check in on apps or online and needed an agent. They insisted I try the kiosk first. Unsurprisingly.. it didn't work. I was allowed to get in the check in line with an agent where I stood for the next almost 2 hours. Yes, 2 hours standing on a concrete floor. My back was screaming (old people problems, I know). I finally got up to an agent who said I wasn't able to check in because I needed to show my visa. I pulled up my British electronic visa and she said "no love, your American visa".. while holding my American passport in her hand. I explained I don't need a visa because I am an American returning to my home country. She looked confused but decided she needed to call someone to help. I stood while she was on hold and transferred around to different places who eventually told her it was an issue in the system today and they would remove the error. She then told me I had no seat on the flight because it was oversold and they couldn't guarantee I would get on, so they may have to book my on the next flight which was the next day or would need to look at another airline for me. She gave me a boarding pass that was or standby and said to hurry to the gate to try and get a seat. I got in the security line and about 15 minutes later, I was up.. I scanned my boarding pass and it errored out, not letting me through. An employee told me I had to get in a different line to see what was wrong with my boarding pass. I stood in anther line for a good 40 minutes. Once I got help, they told me I couldn't get through because I don't have a seat and would have to fly standby. I explained, yes.. that's why I have a standby boarding pass. It says standby on it. She said it wasn't standby in the system and it needed to be fixed, so she had to call someone to assist. Another 15 minutes later and they couldn't get it to work and I was going to miss the flight, she said she would take me through a different security line so I could get to the gate. She did that and I had to take a train to get to the gate, which wasn't working for about 5 minutes because it was having a "security sweep" with officers and dogs going through it. I finally got on the train, got off at the right place, ran all the way to the gate as they were boarding. Asked if they had a seat for me, and they huffily said they did but I almost didn't because I waited so long to get to the gate. Are you kidding me? I got on the plane and will be happy to never fly British Airlines again. I guess all the great luck I've had traveling was made up for on this trip. Just terrible.
