That's just silly. Riding on Spirit is great from my experience, was treated very well by the crew.

I 100% agree. Spirit's crewmembers treat commuters extremely well and have been nothing but welcoming and friendly every time that I have used them. Are the planes the most comfortable? No. But the staff is nice and they always have room for your bags.

riding Spirit or Allegiant is a nice change from being in AA cabins all the time and enduring the barely-concealed contempt from the FAs, imo. Then again I spend a lot of time in usair stations which are known for that

AA is perhaps the worst experience of them all. Spirit, Allegiant, United all seem genuinely happy to help me out and at least try to be happy. AA, ha, they without fail make me feel more like a burden to them than anything, except of course when they are commuting on us lol.

This is the FA’s by the way, pilots at AA always seem pretty OK.

I have had worse experience on UA than AA. They are both full of people trying to turn FA into a career with the absolute minimum effort possible.

Your trip sequences will start and end at one of the two. If you need to get between the 2 airports during the sequence, the company is responsible for transportation.
