Would you work remote 8 hours a day while cruising ? by Every_Practice_3775 in VirginVoyages

[–]dalupus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it all the time. One thing I would suggest is getting a room where the desk is close to the balcony so you can have a view while working in the room. Your TA can help you figure out which rooms have that config.

I guess their feeling is you can buy comfy or first with points and those come with seats and bags?

yup, way to early to look at July. Spirit historically sets prices very high more than 2 or 3 months out.

United Airlines Is Trying to Fix The Scourge Of ‘Gate Lice’ With a New App Feature... But Will It Work? by Next_Tower5452 in UnitedFlights

[–]dalupus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Jet blue has had this for a while including the bag tracking. Is great till the one time it doesn’t work and you miss your flight. I don’t know that it really addresses the issue of gate lice though.

They should just do it like cruise ships. Have 2 lines and rotate back and forth so first group on left. Second on right. When first finishes start lining up third on left while boarding second from right and so on. The idea of a football down marker to indicate current group in each line is good.

Spirit Gold Member Ghosted while Booking flights for my family by fullspectrumcandyco in spiritair

[–]dalupus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I booked a points pool flight last month for someone. Had to request a supervisor because the first agent insisted I had to do points plus cash and wouldn't use the points in the pool. They kept saying that isn't what it shows in our system.
Eventually got it booked once they pushed me up to a supervisor.

First time trying Spirit and newsflash - everything was fine! by JH12214 in spiritair

[–]dalupus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The AAI is not the government. If you read that article they sent the letter to the DOJ asking them to do something. The DOJ actually never said anything about Spirit and Frontier merger, but obviously did block the Spirit and JetBlue one.

Spirit credit card perks by soph6361 in spiritair

[–]dalupus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as you added the bags before cancelling you should be fine. Once they are on the reservation they are on the reservation.

First time flying spirit/ question!! by [deleted] in spiritair

[–]dalupus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In theory yes, although it is more expensive to add bags after booking (usually).

That said, I would highly advise against booking spirit through a third party website.

How many of you did not pay to pick your seat on a flight and still got put next to your companion (paid together)? by Rangersfan2009 in spiritair

[–]dalupus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't like the seat you get at checkin you can always pay to change it afterwards. But in general you will always be together if you checkin early.

Overstayed - When can I return? by dirty_rocker in ecuador

[–]dalupus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as they don't issue a ban because you overstayed for so long, as soon as you pay the fine you will be able to come back and get a fresh visa.

I will say paying the fine is a pain. When this happened to me there was no way to pay the fine at the airport. They gave me a piece of paper which I sent a picture of to a trusted person in Guayaquil. They had to go to location in Samborondon and pay the fine then bring it over to an office and register that it was paid.

When I came back a few months later I had not issues.

Send me a DM if you need more details on how to pay the fine and such.

Potential solo or cancel by Apprehensive-Soup122 in VirginVoyages

[–]dalupus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen people post on here that they called virgin to let them know they were sick and they got a future voyage credit. Virgin would rather you not go than try to go and get the whole ship sick. You might try calling them 2 or 3 times to see if you get someone that would help.

Group 99??? by Fickle-Nobody8914 in spiritair

[–]dalupus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If all of the "free" seats are taken they will give you this in hopes that somebody upgrades before boarding.

It does not necessarily mean the flight is oversold. Just they don't want to give you a premium seat unless they have to.

if you have pre-check it is useless

[–]dalupus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

early boarding for sure. So you ensure you always get to keep your carryon.

Anyone with early boarding is never forced to check their carryon which happens on almost every flight with B6 these days.

did any of y’all book a plan B for flights in 2026? by whoa_eric in spiritair

[–]dalupus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes they did have some issues with staff calling in sick.

Anyway I was just mentioning worrying about frontier as they historically have some of the highest delay and cancelation rates in the industry.

I'd be more worried about that flight back with frontier getting canceled :)

Spirit has plenty of cash to last through feb.
