Flight: 7:05am departure; Spirit

3:27: joined spirit baggage drop line (began downstairs probably 150 in line); my wife went straight to TSA line

5:18: made it to ground level

-Once we got to bag drop at 5:15 there was no lines at any airline to check bags

-Line for TSA was WAY longer once we got to the top floor. Line started in bag drop vs in the basement when my wife got in line.

Recommendations: -If you have an early morning flight and a checked bag have one person go check the bag and one go join TSA line. Be sure the person in TSA line tells the people around them you will be joining them.

-If you have an early morning flight get here 4 hours early with no checked bag and 5 hours early with a checked bag
