    I actually had no idea that bags were not included and they don't appear to have a lot of space in the cabin.


    I am flying with them on Saturday evening to Vegas.


    Not really looking forward to it, but it is a nonstop flight at least! So I guess that I will just sleep or the 3 hours of the flight

      Probably so, but it is about 50-70% cheaper than the other flights that I am booking today

        I would rather take Amtrack or Greyhound or a boat.

          I will agree with one philosophy that they have. NO food on the plane. Who really wants to eat airline food anyway?? I wouldn't mind a Dr. Pepper to drink, but I guess that I can bring my own

            You can bring one personal bag on as long as it fits under the seat in front of you. Anything in the overhead you get charged for. If you do not pay for a checked bag ahead of time, the price goes up. Same goes for carry on's. If you can upgrade to their "big ass seats" for 50 bucks, just do it. If you plen on ordering anything other than water to drink, buy it in the airport.

            You can find bags that fit a good amount of clothes and fit under the seat on Amazon for less than the carry on fee.

                  I was flying out to Vegas/Pasadena for the Auburn/Florida State title game. Flight out of NY got cancelled, so I drove to Detroit to get around the storm. Ended up booking a cheap flight with Spirit. Got whacked for each bag, had no leg room, but it was a cheap ticket and I got there in time.

                  I wouldn't voluntarily fly through them ever again.

                        When I asked for a water, they said my only option was to pay $10 for a 32 oz bottle. Smallest seat and least leg room I have ever seen on a plane, wish I would have known about the $50 upgrade, would for sure take advantage of that.

                            bullshit.

                            With the right safety pre-cautions flying is safe.

                            its when Pilots take unneccessary risk that brings trouble

                              I'll be the jackass that asks. One seat or two?

                              I've been told the seats are tiny

                                Precautions is one word stupid fukk.

                                Bear....we all know damn well your brokedikk ass has never been on a plane. You're fooling no one.

                                Jesus. Is your life really that pathetic that you have to make up stories on a gambling forum?

                                Must be sweet.

                                  I use them 90% of the time. I like the price. As long as the plane doesn't go down.... everything is working perfectly in my book.

                                    I'm pretty sure they legally have to serve you water but they were probably trying to railroad you into buying the shit they can charge for. Despicable behavior regardless.

                                        When they are cutting corners by not serving water imagine how many corners they cut in plane maintenance and pilot hiring.

                                          They confiscate your food and eat it in front of you. One time the flight attendant spit on me.

                                                I guess that's free, but damn...

                                                Buy your own water at the airport

                                                  They hire cheap underage workers to service the engines, as others have stated bring a parachute.

                                                    It's a god damn nightmare.

                                                    Bring an extra $500 with you, in case you need a bottle of water or need to use the restroom.

                                                        Didn't like the lack of service before flight even took off, flight attendant asked me why would I choose them over Delta, I said the price, she laughed and walked away. Have never been more afraid in my entire life.

                                                              I was just thinking about taking Allegiant to Hawaii since it's about 1/2 the price of the large airlines. What's the story with them?
