Spirit’s big, yellow birds taking flight: To some, they may resemble a huge school bus with wings. Or a gigant… http://bit.ly/1shPh34

I’d call @SpiritAirlines “the remedial school bus of the sky” but I can’t think of a district that charges kids just for choosing a seat.

“A school bus with wings”
That is how Spirit Air was described to me. I need to get to Cancun in late April 2017 and was wondering if anyone has used this airline? About a 2 hour flight from Houston and a bit over $200 and you’re allowed “one small personal item.” Does my $3000 suit count?

The irony that @SpiritAirlines planes are yellow because their flights feel like you’re on a school bus with wings

Spirit’s cheap, about as cheap as air travel should be, but it is kind of literally a schoolbus with wings, and you know what, fine
