Spirit Airlines launches Airbus More Fly Fly-Away flight giveaway

On Wednesday, US budget carrier Spirit Airlines launched its enhanced “More Fly Fly-Away” customer experience, and to make the offer even more attractive, it is offering free flights to two lucky winners and their guests. Passengers can now try out the new onboard features and travel options, including “Go Big,” “Go Comfy,” “Go Savvy” and “Go.”

Fancy a free flight for two?

The four new travel options offer the flexibility of no rebooking or cancellation fees. While some of them were already partially available, all offers went live yesterday.

• Go big for more comfort with a Big Front Seat, one checked and one carry-on bag, priority check-in and boarding, snacks and drinks, including alcoholic beverages, and streaming access to fast WiFi.
• Make yourself comfortable the choice of an aisle or window seat with a guaranteed blocked middle seat, one piece of checked baggage and one piece of carry-on baggage, priority boarding and a snack and a non-alcoholic drink with every service.
• Be smart to receive standard seat selection and the choice between one checked bag or one carry-on bag.
• Go to keep it simple and affordable. Standard seat selection, checked baggage and other options can be purchased separately.

Rana Ghosh, Spirit’s senior vice president and chief transformation officer, said transforming the Spirit guest experience is a significant milestone that delivers exceptional value to travelers, and Spirit is excited to include our guests in the celebration with this new in-flight gift.

Starts at the airport

Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International is one of 23 airports where the new Priority Check-in service is now available. The service is available to guests who choose to Go Big or are Free Spirit Gold members or Free Spirit World Elite Mastercard holders. Airports offering Priority Boarding include Atlanta (ATL), Boston (BOS), Cancun (CUN), Chicago (ORD), Las Vegas (LAS), Los Angeles (LAX), New York (LGA), Newark (EWR), Philadelphia (PHL) and San Juan (SJU).

Spirit has not forgotten passengers who are not eligible for priority boarding and has introduced a new boarding process. The new airport process is based on boarding in five groups to reduce boarding time and improve operational and on-time performance.

These improvements aren’t exactly what you’d expect from a budget airline, but Spirit has taken a bold step and is offering more than just a cheap seat. The company is committed to reimagining the flying experience for its guests, combining good value with excellent service.

The airline uses its all-Airbus fleet on routes to more than 90 destinations in the US, Latin America and the Caribbean. Its More Go promise is to give more people the opportunity to travel to more places, more often, especially those who want to “be well travelled and travel well”.
