  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Fairly common actually. Just ask @jj1000
Yep, very common. Happens all the time. Especially when there is a crew delay, a new crew can show up at any moment and leave, even if the plane is empty...

Spirit checkin agent tucking in a $100 bill in her socks would've gone a long way here, as it had in my experience... its Spirit after all

Erm, all good except this.
Yes, but -1 for Erev Yom Tov, unless you can afford to miss it. Same for showing up late when delayed. Though not equal, both are risks.

I've been in two spirit planes but I've never flown spirit.
Both times it was BOS -ewr and I had a back up car rental reserved

If I'm solo, checked in with PRE/CLEAR lines open, and without checked bags, there's no way I'm getting to the airport earlier than T minus 45-60.

I've yet to miss a flight out of >1,000 DPs. Ahem @Something Fishy @whYME @aussiebochur @moish @chaim'l ;D

But yes, take away any of those factors and the timeframe will shift.

That's the Spirit!
Were there sharks involved?  :)

no sharks... They didn't want to let us off the plane. If your at the gate they have to allow and I insisted.
They said once I get off I can't get back on..
Once I got off, they decided to offload everyone. I went to get a car. When I was passing ORH, I received a call from the gate that they're waiting for me to board.  Oh well...it was a nice x7.
When I was passing BDL I received a notification that my flight was cancelled I was rebooked the following day.

I tried swimming with Great white sharks in CPT with @AJK, but it was canceled due to WX.  >:(
Just giving credit where credit is due.
