I wonder if someone other than Spirit(because of a very very good casm) could make ACY work ie jetBlue what would happen to their market share. I have all the respect for Spirit and they make tons of cash I just think they are really good at staying out of the way of other airlines( for the most part yes I know about DFW)......Now that I have not been totally positive about Spirit feel free to bash me.....
I dunno, I just think people like to hate Spirit just because...... When I non rev, (or just sit in the back) I have seen way more ****ed off people on United, the gate agents are Just the most miserable human beings in the world and the FAs treat EVERYONE like dirty scum. JetBlue everyone is fantastic, same with SWA. I have only been on DAL a few times but it was a good experience, AA was ok but jesus their airplanes are beat to hell. I see the interaction with Spirit people and passengers are usually happy. I also noticed Spirit passengers still clap on landing, way more than any other airline. The people who complain (from what I have seen) are those who think the rules don't apply to them and get stuck paying because they get caught trying to bring a carry on without paying.
