Don't want to turn this into a Spirit Airlines sucks thread, but I remember the first time I flew with Spirit 11 years ago. Funny enough it was on a trip with me and a buddy to go to Orlando for HHN 23. We got lured in by the cheap prices, only to find out I had to pay $100 just to check my bag as they felt my bag was just a little bit over the limit when it barely fit in the test compartment.
To make this better, it was a redeye flight, and I had to sit next to an obese drunk guy who was constantly complaining about his "worthless spaghetti maker" wife divorcing him, as he said she was calling him a "good for nothing". There was a *somewhat* redeeming factor to sitting next to him though. When the stewardess askes us if we want anything, he bought $75 worth of snacks and soft drinks for me and my friend and himself! After that he immediately wanted to order four small shots of vodka. The stewardess was like "How about maybe....one? You've had enough." He said "Naw sweetheart, make it eleven! Take it or leave it!" She reluctantly let him buy one. After our snacks came his drunk self spilled coke all over the left side of my pants.
So it's about 2 am, we're about halfway, and I'm trying to sleep after eating my combos, pretzels, and candy. The left side of my pants is a little damp and smells like Coke. He tries to have a convo with me and my friend about how he wanted to see Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm in Florida and all the vacationing he was gonna do there. I'm tryna sleep but then he decides to listen to my friends music. I crap you not....he starts singing along to freaking Down with the Sickness at 2am when we're all tryna sleep.
Finally, the plane lands and our half-asleep selves are tryna leave. While we're exiting, he decides to proudly announce to the whole cabin that he couldn't wait to go to McDonald's to do a lot of ma- erm...do a lot of....inappropriate activities at McDonald's to get over his divorce. A stewardess then told him "Sir, please. There are children on this plane."
So yeah, never fly with Spirit. Ever. You cant even get a glass of water without them charging $6. I will never fly with them again, and neither should you. I would never wish that upon my worst enemy. It baffles me why Universal chose this airline to advertise SNW.
But going back on topic, how were those one year anniversary pins? Lol
