Wow! I wish I had Googled 'Spirit Airlines Scam' prior to booking my flight. My business partner and I were both looking at a flight that departed Ft. Lauderdale in the morning, and arrived at LAX the same morning on Spirit Airlines. We both made sure the flight was an AM flight, because I had a departing international flight out of LAX the very same evening. Again, BOTH of us were looking at the same computer screen and BOTH of us agree that the flight was an AM flight. After booking and confirming the flight, just by chance I was scrutinizing the confirmation I printed out, and behold - the AM had been changed to PM (all other facts - flight number, numerical times, etc. were the same). Contacting a human being at Spirit took over 30 minutes, at which point I was told (by a woman who sounded like a Chinese national) I should have reviewed the confirmation more carefully, and it would cost another $70 to change flights - as if I would ever consider giving Spirit Air another dime (I booked another flight on American Airlines that went ok). I wasn't too worried, because I also purchased the AIG flight insurance - however this turned out to be a worthless scam as well. I will be warning every person I can about this airline and their unethical, if not illegal practices. Made a Spirit Airlines hater out of me before I ever got on the plane, and now never will.
