Now, what can you do with 8,000 Spirit Airlines. Who in the world is this airline anyway? Well, if you are like me you’ve probably never flown on Spirit Airlines and are just grabbing these free miles because their free.
Spirit Airlines is a budget airlines similar to Southwest Airlines and others. The fact is though according to customer reports from 2013, Spirit was ranked worst airline in America, with Virgin Airline ranked the highest and Southwest second. So it doesn’t make you want to rush out and jump on their airline. But sometimes you might be in a situation where you have a short flight you need to save some money on and are willing to give them a shot to save some bucks. I did this once with a Ryan Air flight to Dublin. I’d read alot of bad stuff but I was looking to save money and I learn that all the reviews were right. Our family survived the short flight. Not my favorite flight ever but I might do it again to save a few bucks from between European countries. I’ve learn first hand how awful their customer service is, their strict checked baggage and carry-on baggage fees are, and how the employees actually earn bonuses to charge you fees. That being said, I’m willing to “hate on” Spirit Airlines for 8,000 free miles and give them a try for free! I’m thinking I could use these miles for a one-way flight to the Caribbean.
What will 8,000 Spirit miles get you? Almost a free one-way which starts at 10,000 miles unless you have the Spirit Airlines Mastercard. If you are a Spirit Mastercard holder can get a free one-way for only 2,500 off peak. So that would be (3) one-way tickets if you are willing to open the Spirit Airlines Mastercard.
