Warning...Do Not fly this airline. Their reservation change policies and other hidden fees will cost you more than flying any other airline. I made a reservation for 3 on a flight from San Diego to Las Vegas and the flight was accidentally reserved for the wrong weekend. (one week too early). When I called (3 days later) to change the flight from September 29th to October 6th I was told the change fee would be $480. It was cheaper for us to book 3 more flights on Southwest for the October 6th flight, than to pay the Spirit Airlines change fee. Warn your friends of their scam! If you are a club member you pay $20 for a carry on bag, each way ($40) and they also charge a :Passenger Usage fee" that other airlines I checked do not.
