My two cents. Booked my family of 4 on spirit to Cancun last week. Flight was cancelled the night before. No explanation whatsoever. Next flight out with them was fully booked too, so we had to pay $$$ to book with another carrier same day. Still haven't even gotten our refunds yet.

Spirit is great when everything goes right. But when things go wrong as they inevitably do, you're farked.
next time just add the bag via the app. you can do that last minute, even once you've already checked in. it's cheaper.
Looks like Frontier in Atlanta is also matching some of the dates in addition to going beyond March 6.

Also Pro Tip: If you're able to purchase Spirit or Frontier tickets at the airport they will waive the online Passenger Usage Fee. It can vary per flight but it's usually $22 each ticket and per segment/layover.

So for example I had a flight from Atlanta to Seattle for $74. There was a layover in Las Vegas so that took an additional $22 off on top of the standard airport discount. In total I paid about $60 roundtrip.

This is by far the biggest risk of any of the discount carriers at this bottom pricing tier unfortunately. Depends a lot on the brand and location how likely it is but you definitely want to have a contingency plan and not fly "just in time" to an expensive event/stay on them.

Honestly, we traveled to Cancun three times with them last year. Apart from minor delays (never more than 15 minutes), we didn't encounter any issues. Your mileage may vary, though.

Agree with most of the comments regarding service issues with Spirit. Flying back from Costa Rica once, we were in the checkin line and they cancelled the flight. Only explanation that the crew on the incoming flight ran out of their continuous working hours. Smilie. How does that even happen? Did they land and ask the crew, how long have you been working today?

Anyways, no hotel no meals. Just go back to the city. Book hotel for another day. Come back next day. you hope it wont get cancelled again.

But then we fly cheap.. but pay for everything else (like most airlines nowadays). But $80 for checked in bag at the airport. Go figure.

Cancun is a dump. I took my family there last year for a nice, relaxing beach vacation and ended up getting extorted by the Cancun police.

I don't think I can stand to be on a Spirit plane for more than 1.5 hours from SF to LV
