Our colleague, Alison Sider, has covered airlines for six years, and in that time,
she's heard a lot of impassioned takes about people's favorite and least favorite airlines.
But there's one carrier that seems to inspire especially strong feelings.
I think probably spirit airlines is the one that people generally have the strongest opinions about.
Spirit.
The low cost, no frills, airline.
Okay, so what do spirit lovers love about spirit?
People who love spirit, and maybe love is a strong word, but people who tolerate spirit,
you know, it's just the fairs are cheap, and that is really meaningful.
I mean, that allows people to travel, take trips that they ordinarily wouldn't be able to, you know,
spoken to people who are in a long distance relationship, and you know, you're visiting someone once a month, right?
It makes a huge difference to pay $100 or less for a round trip ticket,
and you're willing to put up with a lot to make that happen.
People hate on spirit airlines way too much.
I fly them all the time, and it's a fine experience.
I fly them so much I got their credit card, but that's for another person.
And what do the haters say?
It just isn't the most luxurious or the most comfortable airline.
But I just needed to come on here to share with you all how much I hate spirit airlines.
And it's like, I know, I know I did this to myself.
