According to a report from Bloomberg on Wednesday, April 15, the company is so low on funds that it may be forced to completely shut down in the coming days. The news comes as it’s already seeking court approval for a second restructuring in less than a year after narrowly avoiding bankruptcy in March of 2025.

As for what that would mean for Spirit Airlines ticketholders whose flights would be after the liquidation and shuttering of the once-budged-friendly airline, that remains to be seen.

All Spirit flights are in doubt.

Damn. I like Spirit. Got me to New York for $30 bucks

Yeah, people hate on Spirit, for good reason sometimes, but its hard to beat their dirt cheap ticket prices.

Boarding areas just got quite a bit safer.

It was good while it lasted. Turns out $40-$60 dollar fares aren’t possible to turn a profit with.

There’s been several threads on this, and this story pops up every nine months or so

The flights could in fact be in doubt.
The fights however, will not.
I'll see myself out...

Not good for people who fly other airlines. Their clientele have to go somewhere

Don't really care that much in a vaccuum, but it probably will bring up the prices of other flights a bit.
Plus now the trashy people who used to be on Spirit will now be on other flights.

Some of Spirit's former clients will probably now be unable to afford to fly at all. But those that are able to stretch their saving and save up enough income from their low wage job to go on a vacation about once a year will unfortunately be on other flights.

The government should step in and allocate money like welfare programs ONLY so everyone else doesn’t have to fly with the people who fly Spirt.

Flirting with a new Spirit motto.
Spirit Airlines: Fight or Flight, you don't have to choose.

No one should want spirit to shutdown or else all those heathens will end up on more reputable airlines to bother the rest of us.
