They're just blatantly ripping off Virgin Atlantic's "blatant sex sells" campaigns.

Yeah. I am sure Virgin Atlantic came up with the idea that sex sells. If they are ripping off anyone it is someone from long before Virgin Atlantic or Spirit came on the scene.

Some Airlines find it challenging to have fun. Such prudes.

Fun, from the "extra six inches" campaign through this 69 thing... Heck we even paint our planes crime scene tape yellow.

Spirit even acknowledges this! "We could spend millions on traditional ads but that would mean an increase in ticket prices"

Great job as always! They have people talking which gives Spirit the publicity they need!

Tell'em Juice!

I do not consider myself a prude, but I find it a bit low brow. It will attract some and repel others. If it sells tickets on balance, then good for Spirit.

Next ad campaign:

"$29 round trip and FHRITP"

Wonder how many of those $69 fares are actually in the available inventory? Most times there are less than 10 of these rock bottom fare deals available for sale on a given flight.

Good thing the industry is still scrambling to put people in the seats.

Next thing you know someone will start dragging retired aluminum out of VCV or ROW and launch a start up to completely douche yields in a few markets...
