Anyone here ever taken Spirit Airlines? I certainly did my fair bit of Ryanair as a college student abroad. The problem with the latter is that it flies in and out of the most obscure airports outside major cities, making you pay in time and money for extra travel.

yeah i've taken spirit a few times, i'm always more nervous about cancellations than anything but for short low-stakes route (no connections) / weekend trips it's great. the flight attendants are usually super fun and relaxed, it's definitely a different experience. my parents hate it though

I see, so depends on the destination. Helpful!
