Daily Herald linkMiami too, but surprised to hear this from Orlando! Only problem is it's only Saturdays. Guess there might be some cruise pax on the flights?????

I personally have flown Frontier, Allegiant and Spirit, and really don't see any difference between them, although I have not flown any of them very often. As I said, the biggest problem I would have with these flights is the Saturday only deal...

Pelican--Spirit and Allegiant are exactly the same with regard to carry ons, as Frontier. If it doesn't fit under the seat, they charge for it.
dvesc--You can book the Frontier flights now to SXM?? I looked on their website and didn't see anything.

Sorry, not a Frontier fan, and they are based in our home town. Frontier is our airline of last resort (no pun intended). Super thin, cheap seats, and a reservation process geared to soaking you for every dime they can.

...which is exactly the same as Spirit and Allegiant. My biggest problem with it is flights only on Saturday. But we will probably try it at some point, braving a Saturday flight, considering they fly from Orlando, which saves us two hours drive time, each WAY, versus flights from Miami. But over all, competition is GOOD. AA prices from South Florida have been SO much more reasonable since Jet Blue started flying from FLL.

Yeah, for sure. Just hope maybe it goes really well, and they expand to dates other than Saturday...
