Spirit Airlines you Suck... As a Veteran, I will never fly your $hitty airline. I suggest all veterans do the same...

I flew them once and I'm avoiding them at all costs anyway

Im with u!! What a $hit bag company......oh I just checked their website....no link to "contact us"....they took it off. pile of $hit......

I was wondering about this "contract of carriage" and did a little googling - Jetblue, AA, Delta, Southwest, Virgin America, USAirways, United...all of their non-refundable tickets are non-refundable also...

Only full fare tickets are refundable. I will never fly on any airline. They must all suck.

 

[Palmtree Pilot]

Yep, there is always more than one airfare. Refundable is not normally the cheapest, but you can get your money back if you can't use the ticket. I'm a Veteran, but I don't think I should get my money back when I buy a non-refundable ticket.

Talk about over reaction...

More free publicity for Spirit

Spirit is probably the worst of the worst LCCs

 

[B52GUNNER]

That is the first thing someone says when something goes wrong. "I'll NEVER fly on (insert airline name here) again! Good, don't. I bet the next time you are looking for a cheap fare you will forget all about it and book the cheapest one you can find just like everyone else.

I feel bad for this individual, but Spirit isn't discriminating. It's their standard policy for non-refundable tickets. No exceptions are made.

I don't get it. He bought a non-refundable ticket and he wants a refund. Spirit did nothing wrong here.

Their policy is no refunds, ever, for any reason. (For a non-refundable ticket) That seems a bit harsh for a terminally Ill person who's doctor ordered him not to fly. Sometimes just showing an ounce of compassion may occasionally shine a positive light on this ********************bag industry.

As a veteran I am sympathetic to his situation and public opinion will be on his side. If Spirit refunded his ticket they would be making themselves vulnerable to civil litigation. It would be setting a terrible precedent.

I agree, but I'm sure the beancounters have weighed the cost of an ounce of compassion and decided it's not worth the pound of goodwill it might yield.

I special ordered some car parts and ended up not needing them. 450 dollars worth. Their policy is no returns for special ordered parts.

Should they have refunded my money if I was in this persons shoes?

What part of "Non Refundable" are you not comprehending? This happens at every airline every day. Where is the outrage at the other carriers?
