I know Spirit is a controversial airline with many naysayers, but if you are on a budget it is hard to beat.

I just booked a flight from Fort Lauderdale to SXM for $89 on Spirit. Before anyone says that is not the true price because of the add on's, they are wrong in my case. The flight was $89 total. I do not pay for seats and I can fit everything I need for a week in my backpack. Total price $89. For $89 on a short 3 hour flight I don't care if I am stuck in a middle seat by the bathroom.

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate other airline more but at what expense? I fly every week for work so I have travelled pretty much every US airline at least 20 times. Yes, spirit is probably the worst but for $89 I will deal with it.
