Spirit Airlines
Definition
Spirit Airlines is an American ultra-low-cost carrier headquartered in Miramar, Florida, known for its no-frills service, rock-bottom fares, and a penchant for nickel-and-diming passengers on everything from carry-ons to water bottles.
A budget airline brand synonymous with bare-bones travel experiences, where savings on tickets come at the cost of comfort, legroom, and surprises like $50 bag fees.
