I have had sprint, and if you'll notice that most of the people that love sprint above have all had it for just a short time. It won't take long to realize that they don't have customer service. They did have a discount for airlines but good luck getting it. I tried from July to Nov. and they gave me the run around. I sent in the info they wanted, then they asked for more. I sent that in, then they said I didn't give them the first bit of info they had, then I sent them all of it and they added more info they needed. You'll also find out that if you use the phone for a call more than 15 min. they will at some point kick you off/drop your call, so new callers can get through. Their coverage area is also very sparse. If you stray a mile off of an interstate or leave the city limits you will not have coverage. I live 2 miles from an interstate that is "covered" and I can't make phone calls from home. They are cheap, but thats about all they have going for them. I'm probably going with verizon, they are comparable and NOT Sprint
