MAJOR changes are coming to Spirit Airlines!

Spirit Airlines, one of America’s most popular discount airlines, has announced some huge changes to its fare structure that potential passengers need to be aware of. For years, Spirit has relied on “rock bottom” fares that are cheap and allow passengers to purchase additional services like snacks, checked bags, and Wi-Fi a la carte. However, that’s changing.
We hate to be the bearer of bad news, but flying to Disney World might have just gotten a bit tougher.
Flying can be stressful!
When it comes to planning a Disney World vacation, finding the right hotel, mulling over the perfect advanced dining reservations, and securing park tickets can be stressful enough. However, the flying process isn’t always the easiest and unfortunately, for one airline, it’s about to get more restrictive.

As travel has picked up to unprecedented levels following the pandemic, more and more air travelers find themselves navigating — and getting frustrated by — the seemingly hectic and sometimes arbitrary-feeling rules of air travel and baggage restrictions. Figuring out the breakdowns of how each airline handles checked baggage, carry-ons, and personal items can be daunting, especially for those who don’t fly often. On top of that, some airlines are far stricter than others about carry-ons and what counts as a personal item, including one you may not expect.
So many of us choose to fly when we go to Disney World, which generally means flying into Orlando International Airport.

Most of us are also pretty dutiful in checking airfare prices, looking for deals, and scoring the best prices we can for those flights. That’s where the budget airlines come in. But recently, we’ve noticed a troubling trend. Some budget airlines are cutting routes to Orlando International Airport (MCO). So we have to ask — is this going to continue, and should we be concerned?
Booking flights is one of the most dreaded aspects of traveling — aside from actually flying.
If you’re traveling to Orlando soon, listen up!
It’s expensive, it’s hard to know whether you booked the right time to fly and got the best possible seats, and that’s before you even have to step foot in the airport. A lot of folks rely on airlines like Spirit for budget-friendly fares and ease with booking. However, for those who rely on Spirit Airlines to get to Disney World, there will now be one less route.
A recent legal ruling stopped the buyout of Spirit Airlines by JetBlue Airways.
Airlines are a hot topic!
While the judge has prevented the merger of Spirit and JetBlue for the time being, the future of low-cost fares for passengers and the fate of small airports that rely heavily on the budget airline could be in trouble if the ruling gets overturned. [Read more…]
