Spirit Airlines Has 80% Off Flights Right Now for Travel Tuesday

If you're chatting with a group of travelers and Spirit Airlines comes up, someone will likely recount a story from a past Spirit flight. And at least in my experience, the story usually involves a delay, cancellation or other negative memory.

Breeze Airways flights are back on sale, offering travelers a 40 percent discount on base fares for round-trip tickets through the end of next summer.

American Airlines is once again going long from Pittsburgh.

Shake Shack is taking their signature cheeseburger to 30,000 feet with a partnership with Delta Airlines. For many, there are moments when only a cheeseburger will suffice — during a frantic Christmas shopping trip, when we are feeling a little worse for wear, and in a week or so, some fortunate passengers can chow down on Shake Shack as part of their in-flight meal on routes over 900 miles.

Now’s the time to land an epic flight deal with JetBlue’s flash deals, which offer 25 percent off flights across its network.

Some big names in the airline industry are skeptical that struggling Spirit Airlines will be able to keep flying even as it restructures in bankruptcy. “I think the current business plan is not going to work and, if they pursue it, Chapter 11 will be a brief pit stop on the way to Chapter 7,” Scott Kirby, CEO of United Airlines, said at an event at Washington’s Dulles International Airport on Thursday. (Chapter 7 is the section of the U.S. bankruptcy code where a company shuts down and liquidates its assets.) A longtime critic of Spirit’s business model that wooed travelers with low, à-la-carte fares, Kirby echoed the skepticism expressed in some corners of the airline industry.

Executives from five major U.S. airlines are set to be grilled Wednesday on Capitol Hill over those pesky add-on fees that regularly cause passengers to pay far more than the base price of a plane ticket.

In 2008, the Travel Corporation (TTC) launched the TreadRight Foundation, a pioneering not-for-profit organization committed to making travel a force for positive change. With the inspiring motto "Make Travel Matter," the foundation has become a beacon of sustainable and responsible tourism.

After boarding a plane on a recent trip, the flight attendant greeted us over the intercom with some humorous words: "Welcome aboard Spirit Airlines . And to those of you who swore you'd never fly us again, welcome back!"

Spirit Airlines is dialing up some cheap Black Friday fares with one-way flights starting as low as $25.

I'd spent years as an executive in Southern California, and I had a retirement plan in place for quite some time.
