I have never flown spirit, but frontier is basically my main airline now. In the past, the prices have been very low and enticing although as of recent, this company has been having greed take over. They entice you with s cheap airfare cost yet they charge you $60 per checked bag (used to be $30)... They also dropped the baggage max weight from 50 to 40 pounds. If you end up between 41 and 50 pounds, it's another $50/$60. Also if you book a flight with a significant other and don't pay $30 per seat to choose them, they will purposely separate you as punishment for not paying for your seats. When added up, then end up being close to a ticket with United Airlines.
Every day but Friday and Sunday would be a better way to word
they're both in the same 'as barebones as it gets' / 'basically a flying bus' tier. if you just want to get from point A to point B with a small backpack and no checked luggage, it will do the job.

there are no amenities whatsoever in the flight (no screens, no chargers, no included drinks or snacks - you have to pay extra, no reclining seats), and the seats are even more cramped than usual. and they'll nickel and dime you for everything, so better make sure you don't go over the carry-on size.

as long as you know what you are signing up for, they both offer some extremely cheap flights at times

Worked for me from Omaha to Orlando. Although it seemed pretty cheap to begin with. Good excuse to visit parents. Each way was $41.38 so i guess that BOGO is the -$41.38

Airfare $79.88
Total Discounts -$41.38
Taxes and Carrier-Imposed Fees $78.08
Grand Total $116.58
Might be Grand Total $76 if you went to the counter

Had no idea that purchasing tickets at the counter was a thing. And we're talking about purchasing in advance and not the "find me the cheapest ticket to wherever leaving NOW" that you see on TV.. so u guys basically use the airline counter as a travel agency (for flights only)?

Also,
Frontier is VERY strict on the baggage policy. Most recently I have seen their ladies@boarding gate made almost 7-8 out of every 10 passengers pay for their personal item because it DID not fit in their cabin personal item bin. So definitely be mindful of their baggage dimensions

Personal item:
Size: 14"H X 18"W X 8"D

Thanks for the article. The author, however, never bought a single ticket - and so he's as clueless as most posters, who had read about "interface fee" past decade+

What I posted above is the real deal. While I'm not explaining how to always max out savings, I'm posting the most valuable tip: this exercise isn't limited to $23 per segment. I've knocked off $50 on a "low-priced date quoted $80 on-line", and for some reason quoted over $300 by dialing Frontier's reservation phonenumber... Yes: paid $30 to counter agent while having the phone agent quote over $300 in my other ear.

I go further and explain that nearby Spirit counter was taking less off - $30 - on that particular occasion. If story were only about "interface fee", all of this would not be adding up.

Question stands: has anyone tried another airline, and also international segments? I was told savings were in hundreds....

Interesting.. ! I've never used counter services. Just for my reference, do you mention online price or act completely stranger?
I think if you act too strange at the counter, they may call the authorities 🤗

Flew Frontier once from California to Washington DC. It was a long flight and the seat was the most uncomfortable I've ever sat on a plane ...good price though.

Most people would complain that seats don't recline. Obviously, discount carriers fit more rows into Airbus than full-price carriers.

Another loss with discount carriers is that they'll never offer due compensation for over-booking. While United/Delta made headlines this year for their offer of instant $10,000 cash for bumping a few passengers, you'd be very lucky to end up with $250 voucher from discounter.

Given all of the above, I'd rather deal with major airlines. Therefore, main question stands: has anyone heard of discounting at other airline counters??

Basically, the airport agent books it for you. You do as far in advance at the flight as possible. You don't show up on the day of. The pricing at the ticket counter excludes the carrier interface charge / passenger usage fee. On many tickets, that can be about $20 to $40 worth of savings per passenger. Once you have the reservation booked, you can then go online and buy the add-ons that you need, if you don't like the airport pricing for any of the ancillaries. It's a cool deal.

You do have to make a special trip to the airport to get this pricing (and maybe pay for a short parking space), but you can understand how much you'll be paying by just paying attention to the fee breakdown on the carriers website. You can just remove the fee that I mentioned above, and then it'll help you calculate the actual price that you'll pay at the ticket counter. Be aware that some airports only have specific hours for ticket sales at the counter, too.
Only breakdown I can get online is the rt mco-cmh flight is about $30 and taxes and usage fees are about $75. Trying to figure out how much of the $75 I would save by going to the ticket counter?
