I stopped flying Spirit when it turned into a sky ghetto.

Why am I NOT surprised? I flew on Spirit one time and swore it would be the only time. The counter people were rude and not at all helpfull. I'm short and the seating was cramped too tightly. I'd of hated to be someone tall. I never recommended that airline, it's not worth any savings. Good riddance!
