Again, it will be interesting to see how this plays out after the merger. Maybe Frontier will take that crown.
These types of Karens, which exist in all markets and from all backgrounds, aren’t just going to stop flying because they have to spend another $100 to ride another carrier.
Spirit may have concentrated them in a few markets, but videos like these happen on every airline. Even the luxury of mint didn’t stop a celebrity death match with Chad and the champ.
