I’ve been on a sold out Spirit Airbus with my wife and kids roundtrip and none of us got Covid on the plane. I had no qualms about traveling and just booked another Spirit flight for the holidays to see family.
The middle seat empty is just a futile excercise for flyer’s peace of mind. It’s the whole “no one sitting next to me.” How is it any better when the seat next to you is empty, but 18 inches across the aisle there is a person and one in front/behind by about 32 inches?
