Just don't do it. Left Vegas an hour late because a flight attendant didn't show up. Finally got off the ground and got almost to Atlanta and we had to divert to Birmingham for fuel. Now we been sitting out here on the tarmac for over an hour because this airport does not have a contract with this low rent ass airline for fueling. Ahhhhhh.

We finally made it in to Atlanta. One hour after the last shuttle back to Columbus left the building. Guess I'm spending the night in the airport. All the food places are closed and the hotels are booked up. I made it this far and this is the extent of my supplies. 2 shots and an Atkins bar then wait for something to open in the morning.

I think Spirit Airlines specializes in brawls and fights on their planes and in the terminals awaiting their flights.
They also produce some of the best brawl videos.

Booking with Spirit Airlines is the equivalent to asking for someone to kick you in the jewels. I'm just not going to do it.

I once had a Delta flight from Atlanta to LaGuardia delayed for 4 hours because they forgot to assign a pilot.

Had the front wheel brakes lock up before while heading on the tarmac for takeoff on a Delta out of ATL flight , changed planes, was on the tarmac ready to takeoff again 6 hours later, and they called the plane back in due to the pilot having too many hours. Spent the night in the terminal and left right at 24 hours later.

Then there was the time I got stuck in D.C flying AA.. for 22 hours. They delayed the flight 1 hour at a time so there was no going anywhere. Add in the jetlag and you have a bad day.

Me and several others in our group, while traveling from nations where Cocaine is produced in high quantity, getting pulled into the search /questioning room and given the third degree, getting down to your skivvy's etc.. Bags turned inside out. You name it.

Last time I was in Africa they botched my online Visa I applied for ahead of time, and Covid had them down to a dial up computer and one lady at 1 a.m. I noticed they had a Visa jail, slam packed with Africans / Middle Easterners who didn't have the right paperwork. I just knew I was going to spend a few days there but it got worked out.

Almost forgot about the time we looked out the window at the rear running gear before takeoff and saw a flat tire. This was after the aircraft was loaded with passengers and luggage. We informed the stewardess who informed the pilot who informed the ground crew to change the tire no joke

Airlines / and points of entry are some of the worst run organizations in the world. I have to say, coming into America is by far the easiest and most effecient.

I flew out on delta and it was completely painless. Great experience. For some reason nobody else had a nonstop back to ATL yesterday but spirit. Everyone else had supper long lay overs and we're getting back in after midnight. Lesson learned now. Next time I'll know. Spirit really is the greyhound of the skies. The ghetto fabulous bitches were pretty damn funny though every time something else went wrong.
