We sell bottled water made by "Aquarius" (Coca-Cola brand)
For those that want a "cup" served in those plastic ones that soda are: I havent seen a FA charge for that yet--and I commute alot....
And did anyone try the new pita chips and hummus? Those were bad A$$, or maybe Im just sick of the spirit nuts and combos

Then, as soon as they land, they bad mouth us to their friends . . . and then book their next flight on us, because, yet again, we provide the same flight for less than the competition.
Spirit has a place in the market, and won't be the best solution for every passenger, but is usually the best solution for the price sensitive customer.

What's even crazier is they will likely still book a flight on us. People like to complain, but, when asked to put their money where their mouth is, they choose Spirit over our higher priced competition.

It's a pretty brilliant business strategy, one that definitely has its place.

Maybe a little before your time, bored, but that is exactly how we ended up with ALPA in the first place. Delta was sniffing around for an LCC to compete with metrojet (before song) and nk pilots wanted some buyout protection.

I know, they had alot of samples in base. Snagged a couple of boxes because, after all, pilots migrate to free food like ..something something..(cant come up with a good analogy off the top of my head)
